Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a cell sorter includes a flow channel which supplies a sample liquid containing particles, a plurality of branch channels connected to the flow channel, an image sensor which has a pixel region covering the flow channel and the branch channels, a determination unit which determines the characteristics of the particles in the sample liquid from a measurement signal of the pixel region, and a separation unit guides the particles in the sample liquid to any of the branch channels based on the determination result of the determination unit.

Claim (Index 14):
A cell sorter, comprising:\n a flow channel section in which a cell sorter element having a first flow channel for supplying a sample liquid containing particles from one end side and a plurality of branch channel whose one end is connected to the other end side of the first flow channel is multi-stage arranged; an image sensor which has a pixel region which covers the whole of the first flow channel and the branch channels or a pixel region which covers the flow channel section, for each of the cell sorter elements; a determination unit which determines the characteristics of particles in the sample liquid from a measurement signal of the pixel region of the portion of the first flow channel of the image sensor, for each of the cell sorter elements; and a separation unit which is provided adjacently to the connection of the first flow channel and the branch channels and guides particles in the sample liquid in the first flow channel to any of the branch channels based on the determination result of the determination unit, for each of the cell sorter elements.
