Webinar On-Demand: Shift the Paradigm to Centrifuge-less Immuno-staining of Cells for Superior Viability, Recovery & Data

Nuclei Need Nurturing, Too

Laminar Wash™ benefits of automation and gentle cell-based sample preparation can also be extended to nuclei   Analytical methods on individual cells provide an enormous amount of useful information. But not all tissue types lend themselves to preparing single cell suspensions necessary for flow cytometry or single-cell ‘omics analysis. Homogenization and dissociation of interconnected tissues […]

Towards standardizing flow cytometry sample preparation protocols without centrifugation

Now WatchingWebinar: Towards standardizing flow cytometry sample preparation protocols without centrifugation We sponsored the May 13, 2021 installment of the flowcytometryUK society webinar, hosted by renowned flow cytometrist Derek Davies, Ph.D. of the Francis Crick Institute. Curiox Applications Scientist Noma Ngwenya and Charles River Laboratories Principal Scientist III and Flow Cytometry Core Director Christoph Eberle, Ph.D. discussed how Laminar Wash™ technology supports sample prep for flow cytometry […]

A Missing Sample Prep Tool for Single-Cell Biology is Found

Gentle and semi-automated Laminar Wash™ technology removes background, debris, doublets, and dead time, extending single-cell ‘omics budgets. Single-cell ‘omics technologies are achieving a new paradigm in biology. As Eadweard Muybridge applied photography to settle the “unsupported transit” controversy surrounding the 19th century galloping horse, immunologists are utilizing single-cell transcriptomics (scRNA) to tease apart the heterogeneity […]

How to wash away barriers to therapeutic cancer vaccine development

Developing neoantigen-based cancer vaccines necessitates comprehensive cellular characterization for iterative therapeutic improvement, which Laminar Wash™ systems may facilitate at multiple steps. Vaccines are probably the second-most effective advancement in the annals of human medicine, after sanitation. Most of us recognize the value of vaccines in infectious disease. Yet, swept under the rug amongst the COVID-19 global pandemic is another form of immune-boosting injection combating a terrible […]

Developing a 43 color panel on Cytek Aurora using Laminar Wash for Sample Prep

The advent of modern flow cytometers and flow cytometric methods has accelerated researchers’ ability to enhance the resolution of samples analyzed. Within a span of 20 years, flow cytometry panels have ballooned from a handful of channels to well over 40. The theoretical limit of flow panels now lies not in the available fluorophores or […]

Washing Whole Blood Without a Centrifuge – Human and Mouse

Lysing and washing red blood cells using traditional microtiter plates or tubes may result in significant cell loss and damage. There is now a better way to lyse RBCs while achieving clean antibody staining and lysis as good as or better than traditional methods. The new Laminar Wash™ System offers centrifuge-less blood lysis and leukocyte […]
