Acoustic Microfluidic Gentle Cell Sorting

Watch our demo video to learn about CellWave® 's gentle and efficient single cell sorting technology.

Cell sorting is an essential step in biological research, enabling the isolation of specific cell populations for downstream applications such as gene editing, immunology, and single-cell analysis.

Our unique approach to cell sorting

Conventional cell sorters feature 'drop in air' sorting, where cells are encapsulated inside a droplet that falls between electrically charged plates which deflect the droplet into the desired container. This process is highly stressful to cells and can kill many of the sorted cells.

We re-imagine fluorescence cell sorting using acoustic waves inside a microfluidic cartridge. An acoustic wave is focused to the size of a single cell to gently isolate target cells. CellWave® is a gentle alternative to drop in air cell sorters that ensures the viability of even the most fragile cell types.
