FLOW CYTOMETER STERILE FLUID DISPENSING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USING THE SAME

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure include systems for dispensing a fluid, such as a sheath fluid, into a sample flow system of a flow cytometer. Systems according to certain embodiments include a housing and a pliant fluid dispensing container structure having a first pliant container and a second pliant container, where the second pliant container is configured to apply an amount of pressure to a fluid reservoir of the first pliant container sufficient to convey fluid from the fluid reservoir. Pliant fluid dispensing container structures and methods for using the subject systems to dispense a fluid, such as a sheath fluid to a sample flow system of a flow cytometer, are also described. Kits, having one or more of the pliant fluid dispensing container structures and sterile connector for coupling to a sample flow system are also provided.
