The brief

The University of Sheffield's School of Biosciences requires the supply, installation and commissioning of a fluorescently activated cell sorter, which will primarily be used for sorting cells from either cell suspensions or dissociated tissues.

The system should be capable of imaging a minimum of 8 colours.

A major application for the system will be to sort single cells for downstream mRNA expression analysis on a 10x Genomics Chromium iX machine, so the system needs to be suitable for this.

This is an FTS open exercise.
