An innovative particle sorter capable of isolating large organisms and at the same time generating a brightfield image for each particle analysed. The instrument suits extremely well studies of developmental biology and environmental samples.

Among other applications, the COPAS Vision allows particle sorting for molecular analyses (i.e. bulk/sc-DNA/RNA-seq, proteomics, metabarcoding), imaging, cryofixation for EM and cultivation.

Below some main features of the instrument:

• Large flow cell (500 µm)
• Very low system pressure (~ 0.2 – 2 psi)
• Air-based sorting
• Brightfield images 
• Lasers: violet (405 nm), blue (488 nm) and yellow-green (561 nm).

Emission filters: 465 nm, 515 nm, 575 nm, 680 nm
