The COPAS Vision large particle flow cytometer provides a level of capabilities for individual laboratories where ultimate system performance, maximum flexibility and ease of use are important, such as with high throughput screening. The COPAS Vision adds brightfield imaging to our large particle sorting capabilities. As with our original COPAS platform of flow cytometers it provides automated high throughput analysis and sorting of viable multicellular organisms, large cells/cell clusters, bead-based libraries and other samples that are too large or too fragile for traditional flow cytometers. COPAS Vision has expanded on these capabilities in several ways, most noteworthy is the ability to capture images of the sample objects.  For more details go to: COPAS VISION Platform Overview | Union Biometrica

The BioSorter^® flow cytometer is designed to provide the flexibility for working with samples ranging in sizes from 10 to 1500 microns.  This very broad range of sizes includes many interesting types of cells, cell clusters and even whole organisms. These samples can be analyzed and dispensed intact owing to the low sample pressures, low shear forces and the gentle sorting mechanism.

Imaging Tool for Zebrafish Research -- Union Biometrica, Inc. offers the VAST BioImager, for automated imaging of 2-7 dpf zebrafish larvae.  Replacing the tedium of manual sample positioning, the VAST BioImager automatically loads each larva into a capillary, positions it laterally, and then rotates it in the field of view of the on-board camera for organ level imaging. Alternately the VAST can be mounted on a high resolution upright microscope for high content bright field or fluorescent imaging at the cellular level.  Our LP Sampler can be added to the system to gently aspirate larvae from multi-well plates of many different formats such as 24-, 96-, 384-well and deliver them one at a time to VAST for imaging.  This allows for increased throughput of high content assays and screens.  For more information go to: VAST BioImager Platform Overview | Union Biometrica
