About Union Biometrica, Inc.
Union Biometrica designs and markets 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 under a microscope. These systems sort and dispense objects based on size and fluorescent parameters. Automating this process offers increased speed, sensitivity, quantification, and repeatability of experiments.
- Examples of Cell and Cell Cluster screens - including large delicate cells such as cardiomyocytes, adipocytes, hepatocytes, and cell clusters including – hiPS cells, embryoid bodies, neurospheres, tumorspheres, duct cells and pancreatic islets – are available at: http://www.unionbio.com/publications/publication.aspx?id=39
- For information on our VAST BioImager™ - designed for automating the handling, movement and orientation of zebrafish larvae for quick image capture at cellular resolution - to be introduced in early 2013, please see: http://www.unionbio.com/vast/
