What is sorted cells?

Sorted cells refer to cells that have been separated or sorted based on specific characteristics. These characteristics can include size, shape, surface markers, or function.

Sorting can be done manually or through automated processes using machines such as flow cytometers.

Sorted cells are often used in research and analysis to study specific populations or subsets of cells. They can also be used in medical applications for therapies or treatments.

Sorted cells can be viable and functional, depending on the sorting method and the presence of any external stressors. However, some methods of sorting, such as magnetic sorting, can cause cell damage or death.

Overall, sorting cells provides a valuable tool for exploring and studying cellular behavior and function.
