Single Cell Suspension Dissociator
The Single Cell Suspension Dissociator from RWD Life Sciences is a highly efficient and customizable solution. It transforms fresh tissue into high-viability single-cell suspensions or homogenates within just 15–30 minutes. Available through Apex Scientific, this advanced laboratory equipment streamlines sample preparation for flow cytometry, primary cell culture, single-cell sequencing, and drug development workflows across South Africa.
Precision and Efficiency
Each dissociator model comes equipped with up to 8 independent working channels. These allow for the simultaneous processing of tissue using either preset or user-defined programs. Moreover, models with integrated heating jackets remove the need for water baths. As a result, automation and throughput are significantly improved. Whether you choose the compact DSC-200 or the high-capacity DSC-800, the system ensures experimental consistency and reproducibility.
Flexible Compatibility
Each Single Cell Suspension Dissociator is compatible with RWD’s full range of tissue processing tubes and enzymatic dissociation kits. This allows for a tailored approach across various tissue types, including tumor, brain, liver, skin, fat, spleen, and intestine. Consequently, researchers can support applications such as compound toxicity studies, cell therapy development, and fluorescence-activated cell sorting.
User-Centric Design
A simple touchscreen interface offers intuitive, one-touch operation. Each channel functions independently, and programmable speeds of up to 4000 rpm offer precise control. Furthermore, customizable parameters let users adapt protocols to specific tissue needs. Accessories like heating jackets further reduce manual handling by automating temperature control during dissociation.
Reliable and Reproducible Results
By gently processing tissue, the system preserves both cell viability and fragile surface epitopes. This is essential for accurate downstream analysis. Standardized procedures, when paired with validated consumables, boost reproducibility and minimize experimental variability. In turn, scientists gain more confidence in their results across different batches.
