Flow cytometry requires that a cell sample be focused into a single-file stream of cells that passes through a laser beam. This is usually achieved by hydrodynamic focusing, whereby the cell sample is ...

The precision and accuracy with which single cells can be analyzed and manipulated has been greatly improved in recent years by the development of microfluidic-based flow cytometry. Despite its ...

A research team from George R Brown School of Engineering and Computing (Rice University; TX, USA), led by Peter Lillehoj and Kevin Mchugh, have developed an innovative AI-enabled microfluidic ...

Much of what biologists know about the human immune system has been — quite literally — illuminated by flow cytometry. For more than 70 years, this technology has evolved to become one of immunology’s ...

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 ...
