Cell death in vitro can be induced by several distinct mechanisms depending upon the type and potency of the stimulus. Biological variables present a challenge to rapid and efficient characterization ...

Flow cytometry assay validation requires different analytical approaches in preclinical and clinical settings. A fit-for-purpose (FFP) strategy allows researchers to customize the validation to ...

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a tightly regulated biological process necessary for normal tissue maintenance and development. However, aberrations in apoptotic signaling networks are ...

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 ...

The escalating cost of developing drugs is due, in part, to time spent assessing compounds that fail further down the drug discovery process. As such, high-content analysis (HCA) is now emerging as ...

Larry Sklar (left) is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of New Mexico (UNM; NM, USA) whose interest in flow cytometry as a tool for drug discovery led to the development of ...

How do we “name” a cell and assign its identity? How do we know that we are all talking about the same cells? How do we agree on what it takes to confidently correlate previous with current research ...

One of the primary objectives for the application of flow cytometry in any testing environment should be measurement assurance, i.e., the generation of reliable and reproducible results. This goal can ...

Cytek Biosciences, Inc. has launched the Cytek® Muse® Micro, an enhanced version of its original Guava® Muse® cell analyzer, aimed at making advanced cell analysis more accessible and affordable. The ...
