BD FACSAria II (Cell Sorter)

BD FACSAria II

A high-speed, high-performance cell sorter designed for precise isolation of cell populations under sterile and biosafety-compliant conditions.

Best suited for:

  • High-purity and high-yield sorting
  • Rare population isolation
  • Downstream applications requiring sterile conditions (e.g., culture, sequencing)

Technical Highlights:

  • Multi-laser, multi-parameter sorting capability, 4 way sorter
  • Aerosol management and biosafety containment
  • High-speed sorting with maintained cell viability

Operation: Staff-operated to ensure sample integrity, safety, and reproducibility
