Flow cytometers, such as the BD™ LSR II and BD FACSCanto™ systems, which detect six, eight and more colors, have spurred the development of new fluorochromes and antibody conjugates to take advantage ...

Flow cytometry is a popular cell biology laboratory method. It uses a laser for rapid analysis, quantification, and sorting of a suspension of live cells. In a matter of nanoseconds, profiles of the ...

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 ...

Spectral flow cytometry collects the full emission spectrum of a fluorochrome, enabling multicolor panels with more parameters than conventional flow cytometry. As scientists discover the subtle ...

Multicolor flow cytometry is beneficial because it allows us to gain deeper insights from a given biological sample, with fewer repeat markers in each tube and quicker results. In this three-part ...

Traditional flow cytometry faces significant limitations when analyzing fluorochromes with similar emission spectra, often forcing researchers to compromise on panel design and biomarker selection.

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 ...

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 ...
