Instrumentation at the University Flow Cytometry Resource (UFCR) includes a variety of analyzers and a couple of cell sorters that can be self-operated after training or reserved for staff-assisted acquisition and analysis. Our droplet-based cell sorters are staff run and are located in biological safety hoods that are BSL-1/BSL-2 or BSL-2E compliant. A BSL-3 self-operated sorter is available in the WMBB BLS-3 suite as well.
