Flow cytometry is a technique used for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of cells and particles. It works by analyzing cells as they pass one by one through the flow cytometer’s flow. The ...

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

Photomultiplier tubes use cathodes and anodes set in a cold vacuum tube to generate photocurrent from the light generated by the flow cytometry. The photon, generated by the excitation of the ...

Scientists prepare samples as single cell suspensions and labels components of interest with fluorescent antibodies or other probes. The cytometer uses pumps to draw the sample through tubing to ...

A significant and continuing goal in the development of flow cytometry methods is the ability to measure more parameters for each particle being analyzed. Professor John Nolan’s group at La Jolla ...

How do we “name” a cell and assign its identity? How do we know that we are all talking about the same cells? How do we agree on what it takes to confidently correlate previous with current research ...

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 ...
