Abstract

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly: Selective Single Cell Isolation

Robert Hartley, Sales Manager, MMI - Molecular Machines and Industries

Efficient isolation of rare cells is crucial for accurate downstream analysis. Using a combination of capillary cell isolation, laser microdissection, and optical tweezers, allied to standard microscopy techniques like brightfield, fluorescence and confocal microscopy, the MMI platform offers a variety of cell isolation options on one flexible system. This presentation highlights the ability of the MMI cell isolation systems to multiplex complimentary cell-isolation techniques and thus to enhance cell recovery.
