About Union Biometrica, Inc.
Union Biometrica designs and markets tools for high throughput model organism research. We provide Large Particle Flow Cytometers (COPAS™ and BioSorter®) for objects that are too large / too fragile for traditional cytometers and offer an alternative to manual sorting. These systems sort and dispense objects based on size and fluorescent parameters. Automating this process offers increased speed, sensitivity, quantification, and repeatability of experiments. In addition to our COPAS and BioSorter products, we will be offering the VAST BioImager in early 2013 for automated imaging of 2-7 dpf sedated zebrafish larvae.
For examples of Stem Cell and Cell Cluster screens - including hiPS and embryoid bodies as well as other types of large cells / cell clusters including adipocytes, neurospheres, duct cells and pancreatic islets – please see: http://www.unionbio.com/publications/publication.aspx?id=39
