Chinese researchers have developed an advanced, high-throughput single-cell sorting platform that enables direct isolation of living cells with targeted metabolic profiles from large mutant libraries.

Newswise — Single-cell technologies have transformed biological research by revealing cellular heterogeneity that bulk measurements cannot capture. Widely used methods such as fluorescence-activated ...

Cells constantly recycle proteins and other cellular components. But how do they ensure that the right cargo ends up in the ...

Within complex biological samples, the most important cells are often the hardest to find. Identifying, characterizing, and isolating rare or functionally-distinct populations has become central to ...

Flow cytometry is an established technique for counting and characterising cells, including blood, stem and cancer cells in biomedicine. The principle involves illuminating cells while they pass along ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by Barbie Wang, Maria Giebler, Adrian Freeman, Karen Hogg, Adam Corrigan and Hitesh Sanganee. This poster is being hosted on this website in its ...

Flow cytometry and cell sorting are indispensable techniques allowing for the rapid and quantitative analysis of individual cells within a heterogeneous population. By leveraging laser-based ...

Selecting specific cells to be used in an investigational therapy has led to improved recovery of heart function in a new study employing a lab model for myocardial infarction, the medical term for ...

Most cytometers are for analysis only, and are not equipped with sorters. Those that have sorters tend to fall into one of two very broad classes. Flow cytometers equipped with high-speed sorters are ...

The segregation of two cell types at the earliest stages of embryo development may be enabled by differences in their stiffness. Baby picture. During a mammalian embryo’s blastocyst stage (mouse ...

Channel-Free Single-Cell Sorting in Air with Tunable Paths. Schematic illustration of the in-air microfluidic single-cell sorting platform. Cell suspensions are encapsulated into droplets and ejected ...
