Achieve fast, gentle, and fully automated cell sorting with Highway1™. This compact benchtop cell sorter makes high-throughput, fluorescence-based sorting accessible to every lab. Powered by microchip-based Vortex Actuated Cell Sorting (VACS™) technology, Highway1™ preserves cell health for high viability and reliable recovery, ensuring confidence when using sorted cells in downstream applications. Highway1™ processes up to 10,000 events per second in purity mode and 37,000 events per second in enrichment mode at a 42 kHz equivalent droplet rate.

The instrument operates with Highway1™ Cartridges and Loaders containing integrated microfluidic sorting chips. As single-use consumables, these cartridges enable fast, sterile, and reproducible performance—every time. Gentle and efficient sorting across diverse cell types and characteristics makes Highway1™ ideal for a wide range of research applications.
