The Flow Cytometry Core Facility (PTCF) is pleased to announce the implementation of a new automated system at the platform: the Orbitor Plate Mover.

The Orbitor Plate Mover is now fully operational and integrated with the Attune CytPix flow cytometer, enabling automated plate handling and seamless acquisition. This addition significantly enhances workflow efficiency and particularly supports high‑throughput experimental designs.

The system allows the automated acquisition of up to 23 plates consecutively through an intuitive and user‑friendly software interface. This setup reduces manual intervention, improves reproducibility, and optimizes instrument utilization.

Researchers interested in receiving further information or requesting access to the plate mover are encouraged to contact the PTCF team.
