PARTICLE SORTING APPARATUS AND PARTICLE SORTING METHOD

Abstract:

A particle sorting apparatus is provided. The particle sorting apparatus includes a first detector of a first scatter channel to detect a first light scatter generated by a particle flowing in a flow channel of a fluid sample and passing through a first laser beam, and a second detector of a second scatter channel to detect a second light scatter generated by the particle flowing in the flow channel of the fluid sample and passing through a second laser beam. The particle sorting apparatus also includes circuitry configured to output a first scatter pulse information and a first detection time of the first light scatter channel, a second scatter pulse information and a second detection time of the second light scatter channel. The first laser beam and the second laser beam are irradiated to the particle in different positions of the flow channel.
