Single Cell Dispenser

Home » Biologics / Biotherapeutics » Single Cell Dispenser

Fast, precise and efficient single cell dispensing is greatly simplified by MMS automation-ready bench-top single cell dispenser,SCP4000.

Our proprietary intelligent microfluidics technology integrates CMOS circuitry with MEMS devices on a single chip to enable the integration of signal processing and miniaturized and high-throughput liquid handling.

This allows gentle isolation of a variety of single cells directly into 96-well or 384-well plates. The built-in deep learning algorithm automatically identifies only good quality single cells for dispensing based on cell morphology, ensuring a higher clonal recovery rate.

Dispensing single cells for cell line development, single cell omics, synthetic biology, and gene-editing cell cloning applications is now fast, simplified, and user-friendly.

Why our single cell dispenser?

  • Fast and efficient single cell dispensing – Single cells are gently dispensed into a 96-well plate in 2 minutes or into a 384-well plate in 8 minutes.
  • AI-powered good quality cell recognition – AI-powered image recognition discriminates good quality cells from poor quality ones, ensuring a higher clonal recovery rate.
  • Assurance of monoclonality – Capture nozzle images for every dispensing run to assure that only single cells were dispensed into the plate.
  • No risk of contamination – Eliminate the risk of cross contamination during dispensing with single-use cartridges.
  • Easy to use – Plug-and-play cartridge with no need for manual adjustment, maintenance-free operation enabled by completely tubing less design.
  • Robust and reliable – A single cartridge containing over 100 parallel working nozzles avoids experiment failure due to clogging issues.

Biodispensing Cartridge

The single cell dispensing cartridge, which is the core component of the platform, is composed of an intelligent microfluidic chip that integrates CMOS and MEMS technologies to achieve integrated, miniaturized and high-throughput signal sensing, signal processing and liquid handling.

  • Highly redundant working nozzles with each independently controllable, reduces clogging-caused issues
  • Lifetime of each nozzle is 1 billion times of jettings, far exceeding the required level for cell dispensing
  • Completely tubeless design, harmless to cells
  • Disposable, free of cross-contamination
