We are interested in purchasing a user friendly flow cytometer for
sorting (if such a beast exists). A sorting example would be 500,000
cells that represented 0.1% of a million per ml splenocyte population
for functional studies. What are approximate relative throughput or
sorting yields for example, on an ELITE VS a FACSort. Are there any
consistent sorting problems with either of the two instruments. We
appreciate your candor.
