Designed to streamline the cell sorting workflow and enhance the user experience, the Bigfoot sorter has a multitude of cell sorting advancements and unique capabilities to enable the most complex multi-parameter sorts.

• The Invitrogen Bigfoot Spectral Cell Sorter provides power, performance, and flexibility to help accelerate cutting edge discoveries
• Designed to streamline the cell sorting workflow and enhance the user experience
• A multitude of cell sorting advancements and unique capabilities enable the most complex multi-parameter sorts and to meet high-throughput demands for a wide range of applications
• Automated workflows and built-in control systems enable users of all skill levels to sort cells efficiently and confidently
• Allows both acquisition and sorting on spectrally unmixed data or conventionally compensated data, streamlining the workflow from panel development to high-speed sorting

Features of the Bigfoot Spectral Cell Sorter include:

• Configured with up to 9 lasers and 60 detectors for the most complex sorts
• High throughput – 10 times faster plate deposition for multiple plate configurations
• Custom-designed, fully integrated Class II biocontainment system replaces a bulky biosafety cabinet
• Highly intuitive, simplified software protocols and user-focused ergonomic improvements transform the cell sorting experience

High-performance flow cytometry

• Features custom electronics, firmware, and software designed specifically for high-performance sorting
• Provides the power and flexibility to tackle the most challenging applications
• Can be configured with (or field upgraded to) up to 9 lasers and 60 detectors
• Spectral unmixing option in addition to standard fluorescence detection
• High-speed electronics enabling rates of >100,000 eps for acquisition and >70,000 eps for sorting
• Multiple scatter options allow simultaneous standard and small particle detection, multi-laser scatter detection, and/or polarization

High-throughput plate sorting

• Unique hardware innovations significantly improve not only the plate deposition speed, but also the accuracy, efficiency, and recovery of single-cell deposition
• The average time to complete a 96-well plate is about ten times faster than other cell sorters
• Highly accurate, consistent, rapid plate sorting
• 4-way sorting (96-well plate), 8-way sorting (384-well plate), or straight-down sorting into 1536-well plates
• Multi-way plate sorting options include 96 well, 384 well, PCR strips, slides, 10X genomics chips

Completely innovative solution for biosafety

• The custom-designed, integrated Class II biocontainment system meets ISAC safety standards and eliminates the need for an external biosafety cabinet
• The unique ergonomic design is a quiet, efficient alternative that protects both the user and the sample from contamination
• Integrated safety – dedicated sort-area aerosol management system (AMS), HEPA filter, and integrated software communication provide containment warnings and increased flow to maintain protection if a clog is detected
• Minimal areas such as the nozzle, sample prep, and sort chamber, are enclosed
• The electronics, lasers, and optics remain outside the containment zone for easier service access and temperature control
• Convenience and organization – built-in sample vortex, plate-storage area, tube rack, and biohazard bag streamline the workflow within the sort area

Experience a better way to sort cells

• The Bigfoot Spectral Cell Sorter brings much-needed, truly unique innovations to simplify the user experience and address the common frustrations with sorting
• Automated nozzle docking station for simplified nozzle cleaning and storage
• On-board calibration beads for programmable, automated start-up and calibration
• Hot-Swap Fluidics for continuous operation
• Remote service and support
