Abstract
A system includes a flow cell and a fluidics system under pressure causing sheath and sample biological fluids to flow. The fluidics system includes a gas bubble remover to remove and eliminate gas bubbles in the sheath fluid. The flow cell receives sheath fluid from the fluidics system, wherein the sample biological fluid flows with cells or particles through the flow cell to be surrounded by the sheath fluid. A deflection chamber under the flow cell receives drops of the sample biological fluid and sheath fluid out of the flow cell to selectively deflect one or more of the drops along one or more deflection paths. A droplet deposition unit system in communication with the deflection chamber receives the selectively deflected drops in the stream of the sample biological fluid with the one or more biological cells or particles into one or more containers.
