Flow Cytometry Core



Visit the Flow Cytometry Core website

The flow cytometry core lab located in WA4112 offers several platforms on which to do flow analysis. Depending on the complexity of the experiment involved there are several “levels” of cytometer available to address your specific needs from the simplest EpicsXL to the most versatile BD-LSR II which is capable of 18 color analysis.

In addition to traditional flow cytometry analysis the core also offers cell sorting services via the BD FACSVantage/DiVa sorter.   Flow Jo analysis software is also available on stand alone computers on both Macintosh and PC platforms.  Aside from the traditional cytometers the flow core lab also has a Bio-Plex luminometer as well as a Wallac 1420 plate reader both of which use a 96 well plate format for applications such as fluorometry, luminometry and photometry with UV absorbance.  Flow cytometry is continually expanding in its applications as a research tool.
