Problems solved by technology

Although flow cytometry can analyze single cells at high speed and high throughput, this also results in less cell information that can be obtained in a very short detection time, and it is often necessary to obtain more abundant and Accurate information without visualizing individual cells for long-term observation and detection by other modalities such as Raman spectroscopy

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microbial single-cell sorting equipment, and more specifically relates to an instrument system capable of coupling multi-modal cell measurement and simultaneously realizing high-throughput, fast, automatic sorting and receiving of microbial single cells. Background technique [0002] Microorganisms are an important resource for species on the earth, and their biomass accounts for about half of the total global biomass. Through cell engineering and genetic engineering transformation of microorganisms, humans have produced enormous value in the fields of industry, agriculture, medicine, and environmental protection. However, at present, human beings' understanding and utilization of the earth's microorganisms are still very limited, and more than 90% of the microbial species still belong to the "dark matter (dark matter)" of the biological world because they cannot be cultivated artificially. Currently, there are ma...
