Introduction to Image Activated Cell Sorting
Heading: What is Image Activated Cell Sorting and Why It Matters
Image Activated Cell Sorting (IACS) is an advanced technology that combines high-speed imaging with cell sorting. Unlike traditional flow cytometry, IACS allows researchers to sort cells based on their visual morphology and behavior in real-time.
This technology is particularly valuable in cancer research, stem cell therapy, and immunology, where precise cell identification is critical. By capturing detailed images of individual cells and sorting them automatically, IACS enhances both accuracy and efficiency in laboratory workflows.
Key Advantages:
Real-time imaging and analysis
High-throughput sorting
Ability to detect subtle phenotypic differences
