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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

One of the primary objectives for the application of flow cytometry in any testing environment should be measurement assurance, i.e., the generation of reliable and reproducible results. This goal can ...

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 ...

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 ...
