Cell sorting is a process used in genomics to separate cells based on their physical and/or biochemical characteristics. It is used to isolate and purify specific cell populations for further analysis. Cell sorting can be used to study cell populations in a variety of ways, including cell cycle analysis, cell viability, and cell surface marker expression. It is also used to isolate rare cell populations, such as stem cells, for further study.
Cell sorting is an important tool in genomics research, as it allows researchers to study cell populations in greater detail. It is also used in clinical applications, such as cancer diagnosis and treatment.
There are a number of companies that offer cell sorting services and products. These include BD Biosciences, Miltenyi Biotec, Sysmex, and Thermo Fisher Scientific. Additionally, there are a number of smaller companies that specialize in cell sorting, such as Cell Sorting Technologies, Cell Sorting Solutions, and Cell Sorting Systems. Show Less Read more
