Flow cytometry detects cells or particles in suspension by separating them in a narrow, rapidly flowing stream of liquid. The sample is passed through a laser, which detects properties such as size, ...

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 ...

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 ...

After five decades of use, flow cytometry is entrenched in biomedical science. Besides enabling the quick processing of cells in suspension, flow cytometry provides quantitative results across ...

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 ...

Flow cytometry enables researchers to label proteins of interest using fluorophore-conjugated antibodies and other fluorochromes. Much like immunohistochemistry, which produces two- or ...

Larry Sklar (left) is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of New Mexico (UNM; NM, USA) whose interest in flow cytometry as a tool for drug discovery led to the development of ...

Thermo Fisher Scientific has introduced Invitrogen™ UltraComp eBeads™ Spectral Unmixing Beads to improve accuracy in spectral and conventional flow cytometry. These beads help researchers more ...
