In order to further strengthen its presence in the flow cytometry space, AcouSort has initiated two important collaborations placing instruments at University of Ottawa, Canada, and Van Andel Institute, Michigan, USA, respectively.
As earlier reported, AcouSort collaborates with Dr Vera Tang at University of Ottawa to develop applications concerning isolation of cells from dissociate tissue samples. The collaboration has been very successful and resulted in a poster presented by Dr. Tang at the CYTO conference in May 2024. The application has gained substantial interest as it has potential to significantly improve the workflow and analysis of dissociated tissue samples.
To build on the knowledge generated by Dr Tang and extend the AcouWash sample preparation procedure to other tissue types, AcouSort has initiated a collaboration with Dr Rachel Sheridan at Van Andel Institute, Michigan, USA. Dr Sheridan and her team will work with the AcouWash system to develop and optimize cell isolation from dissociated tissue in parallel with Dr Tang.
To further facilitate the work of Dr Tang, AcouSort has now placed an AcouTrap system at the University of Ottawa to be used for the development of EV and Virus isolation for flow cytometry analysis.
“We await the results from these collaborations with great excitement. Being able to build data together with leading scientists in different fields is an important part of our strategy to expand and independently document the use of our unique technology,” says Agnes Michanek, Commercial Director at AcouSort.
