Tired of spending hours on manual single cell isolation with limited success? Struggling with the shortcomings of the conventional FACS method, which leads to decreased cell viability and altered cell function post-sorting?

Looking for a simple and cost-effective solution to dispense your single cells?

Why choose Tecan's Uno Single Cell Dispenser?

Simple and accessible benchtop solution for labs of any size

Integrate intuitive software and compact hardware at a competitive price without compromising on performance.

Fast and precise dispensing saves reagents with picoliter-level accuracy

Isolate single cells in ~5 minutes, dispense reagents in <3 minutes across a 384-well plate and dispense up to 25 cells per well in one run.

Reliable dispensing process for reproducible results

Based on HP’s proven microfluidic digital dispensing technology, a choice trusted by 1,000+ industry-leading customers.

Gentle single-cell dispensing to preserve cell integrity

Maintain a robust 90% cell viability [1] for downstream analysis. Works with a wide range of cells and reagents.

The instrument is combined with the simple, yet robust UnoControl software. UnoControl allows you to intuitively and quickly setup your single cell or reagent dispense protocol. Once you hit run, the software guides you step-by-step through your protocol.

After each run, you can access immediate insights through auto-generated summary reports. These reports provide information on dispensed reagent volumes, used plates and cassettes, single-cell isolation success rate, and cell concentration.

Learn UnoControl and how to successfully run the Uno Single Cell Dispenser in no time.

UnoControl Software

Designed with simplicity in mind. 

Intuitive fluid and plate definition enables protocol set-up in minutes.

 

The protocol set-up guide includes a wide range of qualified fluid classes, covers four distinct cell size ranges and allows to dispense up to 25 cells per well.

 

Guided steps ensure precise execution of experiments, minimizing handling errors.

 

Gain instant insights with auto-generated summary reports that detail dispensed reagent volumes, plates and cassettes used, single-cell isolation success rate, and cell concentration.
