Multicolor flow cytometry is beneficial because it allows us to gain deeper insights from a given biological sample, with fewer repeat markers in each tube and quicker results. In this three-part ...

Flow cytometry is a widely used analytical technique that distinguishes between cell populations depending on the presence or absence of chosen markers. However, the number of markers that can be ...

Although established more than 30 years ago, the field of flow cytometry continues to grow and advance. It remains an indispensable tool for clinicians and researchers. The “Northwest Regional ...

This technology has vast potential to help patients but remains underutilized and underappreciated. The tools are there. What’s lacking are harmonized controls, regulatory guidelines and database ...

Individual cells are concentrated in a flow cell (or tube) and then pass a laser, which detects a fluorescent signal. This is then analyzed by sophisticated software, producing data on the parameter ...

Flow cytometry is a way to look closely at the features of cells or particles. A sample of blood or tissue goes into a machine called a cytometer. In less than a minute, a computer can analyze ...

Around the same time, Mack Fulwyler, an engineer working at Los Alamos National Laboratory, needed to separate particles, so he drew on existing techniques to create droplets to separate cells from a ...
