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 ...

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 not just a technique. It has matured into a scientific field, one that has become virtually indispensable for most areas of biomedical research. Some of its more well-known ...

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 an invaluable method for biomedical research. Since its development over 50 years ago, technology for flow cytometry has progressed rapidly, allowing for the detection of more and ...

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 remains a critical technology for the high-throughput analysis of single cells in complex populations. Attention to good analysis practices is more important than ever due to the recent ...

The last decade has seen a revolution in cancer immunotherapy. The demand from doctors, researchers, and pharmaceutical companies for more precise results with high sensitivity and high-quality ...

The last few decades have completely transformed veterinary sciences; for example, the life expectancy of both cats and dogs has increased to a higher level than ever before. Veterinary science not ...

The UAB Flow Cytometry Lab is home to a staff of medical laboratory professionals who perform complex testing using state-of-the-art flow cytometry equipment. This testing, through research, education ...

GEN: How have flow cytometry methods changed to keep pace with next-generation sequencing technology, and have any new uses for flow cytometry emerged in the past few years in the area of drug ...
