sorting (MACS) is a column based separation technique where labeled cells are passed through a magnetic column. SEP system provides a column-free cell separation technique in which a tube of labeled cells is placed inside a magnetic field. Positively selected cells are retained in the tube while negatively selected cells are in the liquid suspension. MACS devices are significantly cheaper than FACS devices because they do not require cells to be focused into a single stream and instead can separate cells in bulk.

The right column was able to retreat in haste after Bonnaud intervened with a regiment of carabiniers, keeping two regiments of British light cavalry at bay.
