Fast
and efficient single-cell dispensing
Single cells are gently dispensed into a
96-well plate in under 2 minutes or into a 384-well plate in under 8 minutes.
No
risk of contamination
Eliminate the risk of cross contamination
during dispensing with single-use EASY.ON cartridges.
Assurance
of clonality
Capture nozzle images for every dispensing
run to assure that only single cells were dispensed in the plate.
Cell
Focusing technology
Align cells at the center of the dispensing
cartridge for even better handling and processing of delicate samples
Easy
setup
Begin single-cell isolation in minutes
thanks to the C.SIGHT 2.0’s straightforward software.
Compact
design
Place the C.SIGHT 2.0 in laminar flow hoods
to isolate cells in a sterile environment.
The C.SIGHT 2.0 is the latest iteration of our single-cell dispensing system designed to optimize cell line development (CLD) applications. With faster single-cell isolation processing times and our new EASY.ON cartridges for contamination-free dispensing, the C.SIGHT 2.0 provides an easy entry point into the world of single-cell handling. The C.SIGHT 2.0’s compact design makes it possible to operate the system in biosafety cabinets, enabling single-cell isolation in sterile conditions.

Product Details
Fast
and precise dispensing
The C.SIGHT 2.0 isolates single cells in
either 96- or 384-well plates quickly, dispensing an entire 384-well plate in
under 8 minutes. The system’s versatility enables a multitude of different
cells to be isolated.
Small
footprint
Thanks to the C.SIGHT 2.0’s compact size,
the device can be place inside most biosafety cabinets and connected to
external control terminals, making the system’s cutting-edge technology
accessible to labs of any size.
Minimizing
cell loss
Add an additional layer of optimization with
our patented Cell Focusing technology, which gently aligns cells at the center
of the dispensing cartridge for superior cell detection. It offers significant
improvements when working with rare cell types as this alignment ensures that
cells are perfectly captured and measured, reducing cell loss and even
increasing processing speeds.
Powerful
software
Following CYTENA’s customer-oriented philosophy, the software has been designed for easy use and quick setup of individual experiments. All isolation events are recorded and imaged in full resolution, and all images are saved for future analysis and assurance of clonality.
Automation
ready
The C.SIGHT 2.0 can be easily integrated into automated workflows, making it the fastest single-cell dispenser fully compatible with robotic automation.
Product Applications
Cell line development
iPSC isolation for clonal culture
Cell therapy
Gene therapy
Featured Workflow
The C.SIGHT 2.0 gently dispenses single cells înto 96- or 384-well plates. Clones of interest are then expanded and the highest producng clones are selected for downstream cell-based assays or antibody production.
