Flow Cytometry Immunophenotyping of Blood

Blood cells stained with fluorescent antibodies reveal hidden markers, like a cellular fingerprint. Flow cytometry analyzes millions of cells, painting a detailed picture of immune health, disease clues, and treatment insights.

Hematopoietic cell surface markers

Surface markers, also known as clusters of differentiation (CDs), act like identifying badges for different types of white blood cells.

Agarose Gel Electrophoresis Preparation for PCR

Agarose gel electrophoresis: where we separate and visualize amplified DNA fragments.

Antibody Screening

Antibody Screening

Antibody screening mixes patient plasma with red blood cells to detect unexpected antibodies. Agglutination indicates possible antibodies, requiring further identification for safe blood transfusions
