Description

Queen’s University of Belfast wishes to procure a single cell microfluidic encapsulation system to enhance productivity cell line development and antibody discovery workflows. We aim to detect expression levels of specific antibodies on a single cell level and isolate these cells for further expansion. To this end, we require an encapsulation system which can analyse secreted antibodies and sorting cells in a sterile environment. To accelerate cell line development workflows, we require a system which can ensure monoclonality and excellent cell viability following isolation.
