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 ...

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 ...

Cell processes are complex and are controlled through dynamic intracellular signaling. To better understand these processes, flow cytometry is used to phenotype cells by taking their dimensions and ...

Flow cytometry effectively detects CTCs in melanoma patients, offering a rapid, cost-effective alternative to molecular biology. CTCs are present across all melanoma stages, with a significant ...

Being able to accurately identify and analyze cells, as well as their characteristics, is a key part of medical and life sciences research. One technique that is often employed in laboratories ...

The UAB Flow Cytometry Lab is home to a staff of medical laboratory professionals who perform complex testing using state-of-the-art flow cytometry equipment. This testing, through research, education ...
