Bionomous combines innovative micro-engineering design and artificial intelligence to automatically inspect and sort miniature biological entities. Our technology was originally developed to handle the eggs of zebrafish (Danio rerio), but it can handle any round entity ranging from 0.6 to 1.5 mm. It has been used to sort xenopus oocytes and embryos, killifish eggs, and even seeds!
