Cyto-Mine Chroma: Automating Single-Cell Analysis with Unmatched Efficiency

Cyto-Mine Chroma is an automated single-cell analysis platform from Sphere Fluidics designed to streamline cell encapsulation, analysis, sorting, and dispensing at the throughput of high-performance efficiency.

Cyto-Mine Chroma from Sphere Fluidics introduces a whole new dimension in automation and efficiency for single-cell analysis. This fully automated platform uses picodroplet technology to encapsulate, analyze, sort, and dispense viable single cells, thus accelerating the workflows in cell line development, antibody discovery, and cell therapy by unprecedentedly newer levels of cell-based analysis. Equipped with its multiplexing and high-throughput screening capability, Cyto-Mine Chroma is designed to revolutionize cell-based research.

Single-Cell Workflows: Streamlined and Efficient

Cyto-Mine Chroma compresses the whole process from encapsulation to incubation and analysis into a single instrument that is able to screen millions to tens of millions of cells a day and thus avoid months of tedious work from researchers; it is easy to use to rapidly identify and isolate rare cells with integrated control software and pre-loaded workflows.

The Cyto-Mine Chroma can multiplex up to four readouts per experiment and maximize the selection of target cells. Assays dependent on fluorescent signal measure the secreted cellular products, while sophisticated sorting ensures the monoclonality of selected cells. It is suited for complicated cell analysis tasks due to support for up to four fluorescence channels.

Flexible, user-friendly, and high-throughput

Work flows on the Cyto-Mine Chroma system have been designed to maximize user convenience. Special training is not necessary; accessibility of the system also offers flexibility across a number of applications such as cell line development and therapeutic antibody screening. Users can easily integrate the system into existing pipelines using consumables such as Cyto-Cartridges and Cyto-Surf reagents.

Automation and high-throughput capabilities with Cyto-Mine Chroma should have a quite major impact on life sciences research, especially in cases where one is screening for large quantities of cells. Since the instruments minimize significant manual labor and concentrate processes, the researcher can focus more on the interpretation of data rather than logistical challenges. This would be a bright step toward the advancement of single-cell analysis and streamlining discovery workflows.
