Provided here are cell detection systems, fluidic devices, structures and techniques related to particle and cell sorting and detection in fluid, for example sorting specific subpopulations of cell types. A method for verification of sorting of particles includes receiving a first detection signal that is associated with optical characteristics of a particle in a first channel. A sorting channel of a plurality of second channels is determined based on the first detection signal, thereby determining the sorting of the particle into the sorting channel based on the optical characteristics of the particle. A sorting signal for sorting the particle from the first channel into the sorting channel is transmitted. A second detection signal is received that is associated with the presence of the particle in the sorting channel. The sorting of the particle from the first channel into the sorting channel is verified based on the second detection signal.

Systems, apparatus, and methods for sorting particles

Devices, systems and methods facilitate analyzing, identifying and sorting particles in fluids, including cytometry devices and techniques. The described techniques can be used in a variety of applications such as in chemical or biological testing and diagnostic measurements. One exemplary flow cytometry device includes a channel that is capable of conducting a fluid containing at least one particle and also capable of allowing light be transmitted to and from the channel. The flow cytometry device also includes a lens that is positioned between the channel and a color filter. The lens directs at least a portion of light transmitted from the channel to the color filter. The color filter includes a plurality of zones, where each zone is adapted to allow transmission of only a particular spectral range of light. The flow cytometry device further includes a detector configured to receive the light that is transmitted through the color filter.
