A system for fluorescence activated cell sorting includes at least two excitation lasers having different orientations relative to an objective such that light from the at least two lasers passes through the objective and intersects a fluidic channel at different positions within an interrogation region. The fluidic channel directs a flow of a plurality of fluorescently labeled particles through the interrogation region. The system further includes at least one detector and at least one optical element that directs light emitted from the plurality of fluorescently labeled particles and transmitted through the objective to the at least one detector. The system may further include optics for generating and detecting side and forward scattered light. Methods for operating example systems to collect fluorescent, side scattered and forward scattered light from a plurality of particles are also described herein.

Multichannel excitation and emission for miniaturized, planar fluorescence activated cell sorting

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for cellular imaging and identification through the use of a light sheet flow cytometer. In one implementation, a light sheet flow cytometer may include a light source configured to emit light having one or more wavelengths, at least one optical element configured to form a light sheet from the emitted light, a microfluidic channel configured to hold a sample, and an imaging device. The imaging device may be adapted to forming 3-D images of the sample such that identification tags attached to the sample are visible.

Light sheet imaging flow cytometer

A system for fluorescence activated cell sorting includes at least two excitation lasers and an objective that directs light from the at least two excitation lasers to a common point in an interrogation region of a fluidic channel. The fluidic channel directs a flow of a plurality of fluorescently labeled particles through the interrogation region. At least one modulator temporally multiplexes light from the at least two excitation lasers such that pulses of light from different lasers intersect the common point at different times. The system further includes at least one detector and at least one optical element that directs light emitted from the particles and transmitted through the objective to the at least one detector. The system may further include optics for generating and detecting side and forward scattered light. Methods for operating example systems to collect fluorescent, side scattered and forward scattered light are also described herein.
