The analysis of individual biological cells has rapidly gained in importance in recent years. Single cells are used in the development of modern drugs, so-called biopharmaceuticals, as well as in cancer and stem cell research. The Cytena family of single-cell printers consists of laboratory devices for handling and sorting individual viable cells.
These instruments are innovative tools for the life sciences and make a long-term contribution to the development and manufacturing of new drugs
