Measuring/Sort Time

Using the 70-μm sorting chip at 52 kHz and a threshold rate of 12,000 events per second, purity >98% and recovery >80% can be achieved. The yield obtained is based on Poisson’s statistics. Higher threshold events per second can be achieved without affecting purity but with a decrease in yield based on Poisson’s statistics.
