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 ...

Researchers at Fred Hutch have been working to create open-source R software packages for the analysis and graphing of flow cytometry data. Cytometry is a standard method used by scientists for immune ...

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 ...

Recent advances in flow and mass cytometry have spurred the development of novel computational tools to assist in data analysis and visualization. These techniques should be adopted, evaluated and ...

Analysis of gene expression in whole tissues using real-time RT-PCR, DNA microarrays and RNA sequencing provides insight into the state of cells in tissues under normal and pathological conditions.

There are three main components in a flow cytometer: 1 fluidics, optics, and electronics. In the central part of the cytometer - the flow cell - the sample material meets the excitation light and ...
