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 ...

Many advances in medicine and drug development were possible owing to flow cytometry, a single-cell analysis technique that analyzes ...

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 ...

Flow cytometry detects cells or particles in suspension by separating them in a narrow, rapidly flowing stream of liquid. The sample is passed through a laser, which detects properties such as size, ...

Flow cytometry is a technique that analyses thousands of cells rapidly, with the data processed by a computer. Samples of cells contained in a fluid medium that has been labeled with fluorescent ...

Flow cytometry is an invaluable method for biomedical research. Since its development over 50 years ago, technology for flow cytometry has progressed rapidly, allowing for the detection of more and ...

Macrophages drive key immune processes including inflammation, tissue repair, and tumorigenesis via distinct polarization ...

Flow cytometry has evolved to become a powerful analytical tool used across cell biology, microbiology and clinical diagnostics. Expanded detection parameters, higher sensitivity and automation are ...

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 ...
