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 ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified the cellular mechanisms that cause immune cells to differentiate and ...

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 ...

The discovery of vaccines has no doubt transformed modern medicine, opening up an entirely new avenue of preventative techniques. To date, two diseases have been eradicated through mass vaccination: ...

Flow cytometry is a technique used to analyze cells for a variety of purposes, including cell counting, phenotyping, cell cycle assessment, and viability. The light produced by lasers in a flow ...

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 ...

Technological change is often driven by the needs of people. Flow cytometry is no different. The designs of instruments and processing techniques are evolving to meet the needs of researchers and drug ...

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 ...

Cell proliferation can now be measured flow cytometrically by the use of numerous probes including, Carboxyfluorescein Diacetate, Succinimidyl Ester or CFSE, PHK26, and now Violet Cell Trace, enabling ...

A research team from George R Brown School of Engineering and Computing (Rice University; TX, USA), led by Peter Lillehoj and Kevin Mchugh, have developed an innovative AI-enabled microfluidic ...

The advent of CRISPR has radically changed the face and pace of biological research and has unlocked unprecedented potential in the study of functional genomics, target identification, and gene ...
