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 ...

What are cell and gene therapies? Cell and gene therapies are used to treat, and sometimes cure, diseases by addressing the underlying genes or proteins. While there is overlap between the fields, ...

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 ...

Scientists prepare samples as single cell suspensions and labels components of interest with fluorescent antibodies or other probes. The cytometer uses pumps to draw the sample through tubing to ...

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 ...

Over the past five years, the FCSC has invested $3.5 million in replacing or updating its instruments, expanding capacity, and developing new services such as multiplex immunofluorescence, Hanumanthu ...

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 widely used in areas of research that require analysis or isolation of cells from suspension. This technology makes use of fluorescent probes targeted to specific cell-associated ...

To schedule time for flow analysis, call 977-8877. Leave a message if you are unable to reach us immediately and we will return your call as soon as possible. Users are also welcome to stop by the ...

Flow cytometry, invented in the 1950s, uses antibodies linked to fluorescent probes to detect cell surface and intracellular proteins. Although able to achieve single-cell sensitivity, the method is ...
