Cytonome's Gigasort™ is the first clinical-grade optical cell sorter capable of supporting pre-clinical and clinical cell sorting applications. Cytonome's patented microfluidic technology accelerates sorting 2 –15 times faster than existing technology. Gigasort's™ unique disposable cartridge design eliminates airborne droplets and aerosol contamination, ensuring complete sample sterility and operator safety.

Cell Sorting At One Billion Cells Per Hour
The Gigasort™ system delivers up to 1 billion cell sorts per hour with stable operation over lengthy processing periods. The instrument's ultra high speed is made possible by up to 144 concurrently operating microfluidic sorters.

Closed, Sterile Optical Cell Sorting Is Finally Here
All samples are completely protected from external contaminants and cross-contamination.   Contamination is eliminated using the disposable cartridge-based design.

A Breakthrough in Operator Safety
All cells and liquids are confined to a closed, sterile and disposable cartridge without airborne droplets or an aerosol phase. This eliminates the need for vacuum containment systems and expensive facility requirements to protect against aerosol pathogen exposure.

User-friendly design
Gigasort's™ user interface is designed with your ease of use in mind. Real-time monitoring and self-calibration software make unattended operation worry-free. A simple cartridge replacement ensures sterility and operator safety while eliminating downtime and disinfection requirements common to other cell sorters.

Unsurpassed reliability
Gigasort's™ parallel, multiple sort design minimizes clogging problems. Unlike existing flow sorting technology, a blockage in any one cell stream does not substantially affect sorting speed or capability.

Application and protocol compatibility
Existing cell sorting applications and protocols are fully supported. Current experimental protocols can be transferred to a clinical setting using Gigasort's™ fast, sterile sorting platform.
