Flow cytometry

All our resources and tools for flow cytometry.

Flow cytometry is a powerful technique that analyzes the physical and chemical characteristics of cells and particles as they flow in a fluid stream through a beam of light. By measuring parameters like cell size, granularity, and fluorescence intensity, flow cytometry provides detailed insights into cell populations and their functions.

Explore our curated content to enhance your flow cytometry experiments and move your research forward. Our resources are designed to help you master the intricacies of flow cytometry, from setting up your experiments to interpreting complex data.

Our flow cytometry guide gives you everything you need to run your flow cytometry experiments from start to finish, including multicolor flow cytometry. Our protocols will help you optimize your flow cytometry workflow, and our troubleshooting tips give you expert advice on how to resolve common flow cytometry snags. Our product recommendations will help you easily find the very best reagents for your flow cytometry experiments, including fluorescent conjugated primary antibodies, carrier-free antibodies, conjugation kits and assay kits. Explore our flow cytometry resources and get the tools you need to move your research forward.

The story of spectral flow cytometry, told by one of its creators

Dr J. Paul Robinson is a Distinguished Professor of Cytometry at Purdue University and a pioneer of spectral flow cytometry, a revolutional technology.

Here, Paul shares some personal recollections from his career journey and explains how the first spectral flow cytometer was developed with inspiration from Landsat technology, despite doubts that it would ever really work.
