Single cell dispensers are specialized laboratory instruments used to isolate and dispense single cells for various analytical techniques. Often utilizing a combination of microscopy and microfluidics techniques, single cell dispensers can isolate stained or unstained cells and gently dispense cells into various-sized well plates for analysis. Single cell dispensers are an indispensable instrument for streamlining cell line development (CLD) by utilizing automation while increasing reproducibility and efficiency while ensuring monoclonality. Single cell dispensers ensure monoclonality in several different ways and the methods used should be compared to ensure compliance with your specific assay. Plate formats should also be considered as these can vary from instrument to instrument and most instruments can accommodate multiple plate sizes. Plate sizes can also affect analysis time, with higher capacity plates leading to longer analysis times. Lastly, the size of your cells should be considered, single cell dispensers are often compatible with a range of cell sizes but compatibility with your specific cell sizes should be ensured.

| Description | The new microfluidic cell sorter that dispenses single cells into PCR plates.
The F.SIGHT™ OMICS is a novel, easy-to-use benchtop cell sorter that reliably dispenses single cells into PCR plates and facilitates downstream reaction miniaturization. Sorting is carried out by brightfield image The new microfluidic cell sorter that dispenses single cells into PCR plates.
The F.SIGHT™ OMICS is a novel, easy-to-use benchtop cell sorter that reliably dispenses single cells into PCR plates and facilitates downstream reaction miniaturization. Sorting is carried out by brightfield image analysis and fluorescence with a 488 nm laser. The F.SIGHT OMICS uses CYTENA's patented dispensing technology, which is compatible with sensitive cell types and minimizes cell stress. The Automatic Offset Correction allows reproducible, targeted delivery of individual cells to the center of each well.
The F.SIGHT OMICS needs only minimal startup time and does not require manual adjustments of sorting parameters. It can fill a 96-well plate in under 2 minutes and a 384-well plate in under 8 minutes. Additionally, the instrument’s simple, intuitive software interface helps capture a series of nozzle images for each cell that are available for additional analysis and verification of clonality.
Key features and benefits: - Sorting by bright-field image analysis and fluorescence
- Fast and gentle single cell dispensing
- Automated Offset Correction for precise dispensation into PCR plates
- Cell focusing technology
- Intuitive Software
