The textbook "Cellular and Molecular Immunology" by Abbas, Lichtman
and Pober shows a diagram of a FACS which has two sets of
electrostatic deflection plates in series, arranged orthogonally.
Evidently, if the sorter not only controls the charge of the droplet,
but also which set of plates is charged, one could deflect into 4
tubes (plus one central waste position).

Do such sorters exist? Are they commerically available? Just curious.
