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 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 ...

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 allows for the analysis of single cells in a population. This technique is analogous to microscopy, but instead of producing an image, a flow cytometer provides automated quantification ...

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 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 ...
