Capability Highlights

Tried-and-true Cell Sorting

A tried-and-true cell sorter with unrivaled sensitivity and resolution.

With a fluidic and optical system that ensures precise laser focus on the sample stream, this cell sorting system maximizes signal generation and detection. It leverages a unique patented gel-coupled cuvette flow cell that increases the sensitivity and resolution needed for multicolor applications.

Capability Highlights

Easy-to-use Cell Sorting

The trusted technology of BD’s sorters compacted and updated with automation and user-friendly software making cell sorting easier and more accessible than ever before. Designed with maximized ease-of-use at its core and combined with BD’s patented gel-coupled cuvette flow cell, you can rely on this system for consistent, quality results. Now available with 4-way sorting, this is the answer to simplified and robust cell sorting.

Capability Highlights

The Future of Cell Sorting

The next evolution of cell sorters has arrived.

With up to nine spatially separated lasers, 60 parameters, and 6-way sorting capability, this is the most advanced cell sorter available. This system redefines cell sorting by providing capabilities previously only available through high-parameter analyzers. Sort ultra-specific populations and experience the convenience of seamless panel design transfer as this system is built to enable an end-to-end solution for high-parameter analysis.

Customer Testimonials

“For my busy facility we enjoy the ease and simplicity of the BD FACSMelody™ 4-Way Cell Sorter and our users are happy to gain independence when performing easy cell sorts.”

- Malte Paulsen, Ph.D. – Flow Cytometry Manager, European Molecular Biology Laboratory, Heidelberg, Germany

"The footprint of the machine is nice and compact; it fits in a nice tight space. Secondly, it's been designed to make the user interface a lot easier; [it has] new software [that] really does a lot for you behind the scenes, which you don't even see. The machine itself is very stable and it's actually quite easy to use for people who don't have a lot of FACS experience. The learning curve is shallow. I would certainly recommend [the BD FACSMelody 4-Way Cell Sorter]. It's a nice unit, it's compact and it's easy for users to learn."
