BD FACSAria at George St

The 300 George St. FACSAria is located in room 203B/2320H. The 18-parameter, 5-laser system includes:

  • 100mw 355nm UV laser with 2 PMTs
  • 200mw 405nm Violet laser with 6 PMTs
  • 200mw 488nm Blue laser with 3 PMTs
  • 200mw 532nm Green laser with 4 PMTs
  • 150mw 637nm Red laser with 3 PMTs

It can handle UV excitation for cell-cycle and “side-population”-based sorting.

FACSAria II is capable of sorting with 70, 85, 100, and 130 micron nozzles and equipped with FACSDiva 7, which allows for index plate sorting. It also has an aerosol management system and is capable of conducting BSL-1 and BSL-2 sorts. To schedule a sort, or if you have any questions, please contact Jennifer.Kelly@yale.edu or Diane.Trotta@yale.edu.
