Identifying and Resolving the Sources of Hemacytometer Counting Error through Automation

It’s White Paper Wednesday! This month’s featured white paper: Identifying and Resolving the Sources of Hemacytometer Counting Error through Automation The hemacytometer persists as the gold standard for laboratory cell counting. First utilized in 18th century France as a means to analyze patient blood samples, the hemacytometer has gone through a series of major developments over the past hundreds of years, creating a modern instrument that is more accurate and easier to use than its predecessors. The hemacytometer remains an integral part of all cell-based research, and yet sources of error inherent in its design and utilization persist. Those sources [...]

Rapid Image Cytometry Method for Cell Counting and Viability Measurement for Cellular Therapy

Patients with cancers such as multiple myeloma, leukemia, lymphoma, and other metastatic cancers have tumor cells with unique immunological targets that when exploited, can lead to the complete destruction of the mass and a lasting remission from disease. Clinicians attack those targets using cell therapy, also known as “targeted immunotherapy”. Cell therapy is the programming of a patient’s own immune cells to target that patient’s tumor cells for destruction. One application of cell therapy, Adoptive Cell Transfer (ACT), employs select methods of genetic manipulation and propagation of those immune cells ex vivo so that the newly programmed cells can be [...]

Accurately Count PBMC and Measure Viability in Presence of Residual RBC

It’s White Paper Wednesday! This month’s featured white paper: Accurately Count PBMC and Measure Viability in Presence of Residual RBC In this work, we have developed an image cytometry method for detecting and monitoring the cell expansion and differentiation of articular chondrocytes in primary culture. First, the feasibility of utilizing image cytometry for detection of fluorescent is shown by comparing measured fluorescent positive cell populations to flow cytometry. Next, articular chondrocyte cultures were established in multi-well plates from either single or Cyan/eGFP double reporter mouse lines and grown for 20 days to test the utility of the fluorescence-based image cytometry system. [...]
