Assay of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and/or HbF containing red blood cells (F Ψ cells) is essential for monitoring sickle cell and thalassemic patients, especially during treatment with HbF stimulators. Some previous flow cytometric methods contain several washing steps. This simplified method contains n

Background: Nucleated red blood cells (NRBC) in blood specimens compromise the automated white blood cell (WBC) count on most hematology analyzers. This makes it necessary to correct the WBC count by subtracting separately counted NRBC by manual microscopy. In addition, it is clinically important to
We describe a flow cytometric method using a newly designed product, fluorochrome-containing microspheres (Flow Count fluorospheres), which facilitates the precise quantification of cells in whole blood samples or heterogeneous cell suspensions on a single-cell level. These microparticles are easily
Many eukaryotic cell types are capable of specific recognition and phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, and there is increasing interest in the mechanisms involved in this process. To facilitate analysis of these mechanisms, we designed a novel fluorescence-based method to quantify phagocytosis in vitro
