LevitasBio launches LeviCell EOS system

Documents

As LeviCell technology provides a fast and easy separation of live and dead cells, it can be used to sort the resistant cells of an organoid culture after a drug treatment for further analysis and characterization.

The groundbreaking LeviCell levitation technology efficiently removes dead cells and debris while producing high yields and viabilities of even fragile cell types from a variety of tissue types.

The LeviCell maintains starting population heterogeneity and minimizes stress to maintain cell physiology, so you can have confidence in your cell preparations.

LeviCell technology together with its simple workflow, offers a good viable cell enrichment for most cells using the standard recommendations for levitation agent concentration (150 mM, final) and 20 min of levitation time.

Rare, surviving NALM-16 cells that had BCL-2 knocked out via CRISPR-mediated gene editing were successfully detected and enriched using the LeviCell system.

While magnetic levitation alone can enrich for live cells from dead to dying cells, we demonstrate how the use of two cellular properties, density and magnetic susceptibility, can alter cells’ levitation height.
