The Cyto-Mine® platform by Sphere Fluidics utilizes innovative picodroplet-based technology to capture and screen antibodies directly from entire B cell repertoires, maintaining cell viability and greatly enhancing efficiency.
In this eBook, Sphere Fluidics introduces a fast and reliable single B cell screening technique that identifies antibodies with specific antigenic properties, eliminating the need for the traditional, time-consuming hybridoma screening process.
Sphere Fluidics’ Cyto-Mine® platform, harnesses proprietary picodroplet-based technology to capture and screen antibodies directly from whole B cell repertoires, preserving cell viabilities and dramatically improving efficiencies.
This approach allows researchers to pinpoint antibody-secreting cells and isolate rare cells that produce antigen-specific antibodies within just two days, greatly speeding up the development process and reducing the time to market for new therapeutics.

About Sphere Fluidics
Our vision
Our philosophy is simple. We combine our knowledge and resources to help you find rare and valuable biological variants, while helping you to save time, reduce costs and stay a step ahead of the competition.
Our novel single cell analysis systems offer the rapid screening and characterization of single cells. These systems are underpinned by our patented picodroplet technology, specifically designed to increase your chances of finding that rare ‘one-in-a-billion’ molecule or cell that could be an industry blockbuster.
We understand that time is of the essence. That’s why our technologies boost throughput and assay sensitivity across a range of applications. Most importantly, our flexible systems evolve alongside your changing research needs, providing an adaptable platform that helps you to meet your goals.
Our history
Founded in 2010, Sphere Fluidics is an established Life Sciences company, originally spun out from the University of Cambridge. We initially developed 25 patented products – biochips and specialist chemicals – which currently assist hundreds of customers globally with their research.
We initially focused on producing novel biochip systems and providing R&D services. We have since extended our expertise and are developing a technology platform that enables discovery in a range of growing markets through single cell analysis. Our systems make the development of new biopharmaceuticals faster and more cost-effective, improve monoclonal antibody screening, cell line development, and overall research efficiency in a number of other applications including synthetic biology, single cell diagnostics, prognostics and single cell genome editing.
The Cyto-Mine® Single Cell Analysis System is our flagship product – the first integrated, benchtop system to automatically analyse, sort and dispense millions of individual cells in just a single day.
Our partnerships
We value and are always open to discussing new collaborative, successful and innovative academic and industry partnerships to further develop and improve our single cell technologies.
Our Technology Access Programmes and Collaborative Services exist to enable academic researchers and companies alike to tap into our application-specific expertise through direct partnerships.
