More detailed

• Thresholding and gating on up to 5 independent fluorescence channels.
• Lasers : 405 nm (UV) / 488 nm (Blue) / 561 nm (Yellow-Green) / 638 nm (Red).
• Photodetectors bandpass : 440 nm / 525 nm / 600 nm / 685 nm / 775 nm. 
• Wide range of parameters accessible, such as laser power and photodetectors gain adjustable.
• Synchronised imaging of detected/sorted events.
• Integrates an inverted microscope. The magnification is tuneable for visualisation with different objectives: 4x and 10x in the standard version (motorised), with an option for 20x (for single-cell, microbes, etc.)
• Flows are driven with pressurised reservoirs, with four independent pressure inlets up to 2 bars (eight inlets optionally available).
• The sample stage features a chip holder adapted to LiveDrop's cartridge and other standard glass slide formats (26 x 76mm).
• The touchscreen interface allows users to connect the chip to the reservoirs, inject the sample, and run experiments seamlessly, with just two hours of learning.‍‍
