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 ...

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 single-cell analytical technique that uses fluorophore-labeled cell structures or biomarkers to differentiate between cell populations. Through this method, researchers detect the ...

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 ...

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 ...

For example, flow cytometry can distinguish different cellular properties from morphology to cell cycle stage. Furthermore, the information provided by a flow cytometer reflects the individual cells ...

With flow cytometry, as with many technologies that enjoy continuous use, we can see an evolution of capabilities. Spectral analysis, image capture, and artificial intelligence are just a few of the ...

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 ...

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 ...

Flow cytometry uses fluorescent probes to identify and characterize cells or particles in suspension (e.g. cells, nuclei or chromosomes) by virtue of size, granularity and fluorescence ...
