The CELLSEARCH® System, coupled with different reagent kits can address different research needs and brings innovative solutions for rare cell enrichment.
Cell capture uses ferrofluid consisting of a magnetic nanoparticle surrounded by a polymeric layer, coated with anti-EpCAM antibodies for capture of epithelial-origin cells or another antibody specific for the target cells of interest.
Immunomagnetically captured cells are characterized using different combinations of staining reagents detected through the system’s fluorescent channels.
The system’s 4th open detection channel provides extended capabilities to further characterize captured cells using a biomarker of your choice (e.g. HER2, PD-L1, M30, Bcl-2, Ki67, Vimentin).
An advanced platform for rare cells capture
CELLTRACKS® AUTOPREP® SYSTEM
The CELLTRACKS® AUTOPREP® System automates and standardizes complex sample processing using immunomagnetic cell capture, enrichment, and fluorescence staining with easy-to-use software and batch processing of up to 8 samples with complete walk-away operation.
Captured and stained cells are automatically dispensed into the sample cartridge, which sits inside the MAGNEST Cartridge Holder. A magnetic field lifts captured target cells to the analytical surface of the cartridge, where they are ready to be scanned by the CellTracks Analyzer II System.
