Miltenyi MacsQuant Tyto Cell Sorter, Isolation and Retrieval System

Share Item

The Miltenyi MacsQuant Tyto Cell Sorter is a high-speed, but very gentle, cell sorting and isolation system. The system uses sterile disposable cartridges that keep samples sterile, preventing aerosols, allowing cell sorting, selection, and retrieval of cell populations for later procedures including cell culture, without environmental contamination associated with other cell sorting apparatus and techniques.

Our MacsQuant Tyto Cell Sorter has been fully refurbished and has been tested by our scientific staff. The sale includes a 90-day warranty.
