As for many antibody-based experiments, labeling challenges related to brightness, signal stability, target detection, and background noise are common roadblocks in flow cytometry. Scientists can ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Compensation refers to correcting a phenomenon called fluorescence spillover in flow cytometric analysis. This is the removal of the signal of any given fluorochrome from all detectors except the one ...
