LeviCell 1.0 System

Label-free cell isolation and enrichment, the proven starting point for automated sample prep

Increase your sample viability up to 99%

LeviCell 1.0 System

The LeviCell® 1.0 system provides groundbreaking cellular analysis technology not seen in over 30 years. Now, for the first time ever scientists, researchers, and labs can examine, analyze, and deliver true biological signatures without altering, stressing or damaging cells—while preserving your original samples. The LeviCell platform delivers true biology for real cellular insights to power oncology, neuroscience, immunology, and pharma drug research.

  • Built to scale

Develop on LeviCell 1.0. Scale on LeviCell 96.

LeviCell 1.0 runs the same Levitation Technology that powers the LeviCell 96. Teams prove out a sample type, levitation conditions and downstream fit one sample at a time, then move the workflow to 96 samples per run on standard SBS-compatible robotics.

  • Same label-free separation: no stains, beads, high pressure or microfluidics
  • Image capture on every run: a visual record of sample quality before downstream work
  • A path to scale: from single precious samples to large, reproducible datasets

Reduce dead cells and debris by up to 5x

Levitation workflow

Step 1: sample introduction into the LeviCell cartridge

Sample introduction

Prepare the sample by adding the Levitation Agent, a paramagnetic solution. After inserting the cartridge into the system, dispense the sample into the inlet well.

Step 2: cells levitating in the separation channel

Separation channel levitation

The system automatically loads the sample into the separation channel while the sample is imaged and levitated. The system performs automated, label-free enrichment plus debris removal via levitation.

Step 3: collecting the enriched fraction from the cartridge outlet wells

Sample collection

Once the cells have levitated to their final equilibrium position, a live view in the software enables the user to define how the sample will be divided (fraction of interest and waste). Separated fractions are collected into the cartridge outlet wells.

The LeviCell cartridge

LeviCell 1.0 cartridge

  • Optically clear, inert, biocompatible plastic
  • Sterile, single-use design
  • Accommodates samples up to 350 µm in diameter

Spend less time waiting and more time researching

The LeviCell cartridge is a single-use consumable designed to perform sample enrichment on the LeviCell system. The cartridge is easily inserted and removed from the system for convenient sample loading and collection process. With a sample path that is 100% contained within the cartridge, sample cross-contamination and system cleaning requirements are a thing of the past.
