Gentle, Controlled Tissue Dissociation

The Cytiva VIA Extractor uses mild mechanical processing and optimized enzyme mixes to generate high-yield, high-viability single-cell suspensions while preserving cell integrity.

Closed-System, Standardized Processing

The VIA Extractor uses a closed, semi-automated system with single-use pouches to minimize contamination risk and reduce sample-to-sample variability, ensuring consistent and reproducible results.

High-Precision Single Cell Dispensing

The R&D Systems Pala Single Cell Sorter and Dispenser enables rapid, low-pressure single-cell dispensing into 96- or 384-well plates, ensuring accurate isolation, high recovery, and minimal cell stress.

Closed-System, Contamination-Safe Workflow

Single-use consumables and closed processing minimize contamination risk and variability, ensuring reproducible results across samples and experiments.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Cytiva VIA Extractor uses gentle mechanical processing combined with optimized enzyme mixes to minimize cell stress, while the Bio-Techne Pala system dispenses cells at very low pressure. Together, this preserves cell integrity and results in higher viability and better downstream performance than traditional manual methods.

This workflow is ideal for single-cell genomics, flow cytometry, cell line development, CRISPR workflows, and cell therapy research. It supports a wide range of tissue types and enables consistent preparation of high-quality single-cell suspensions for advanced analysis.

Yes. The closed-system design of the VIA Extractor and the automated, cartridge-based Pala system reduce manual handling and variability. This ensures standardized processing and consistent results across samples and experiments.
