 Flow Cytometry Cross-matching (FCXM)Flow Cytometry Cross-matching (FCXM)
 
FCXM allows for donor antigens and host antibodies to be checked prior to a transplant to avoid a host immune response. The use of a pre-digestion agent can reduce the chances of non-specific binding, which increases the sensitivity and reliability of the analysis.

A team at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed a series of novel fluorescence‐assisted cell sorting (FACS) protocols that enable isolation of neural progenitors, astrocytes, and neurons from virus‐infected cerebral organoids, for downstream multi-omics analysis.

The precision and accuracy with which single cells can be analyzed and manipulated has been greatly improved in recent years by the development of microfluidic-based flow cytometry. Despite its sensitivity, microfluidic flow cytometry is limited by low throughput and poor spatial resolution.

 FACS-based CRISPR screening shows how Chlamydia bacterium invades host cells
 
FACS-based CRISPR screening shows how Chlamydia bacterium invades host cellsResearchers at Harvard University are one step closer to understanding how the Chlamydia trachomatis bacterium uses the molecular machinery of host cells for invasion. The team employed fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS)-based CRISPR screening for the identification of three major candidate genes known to facilitate pathogenic invasion.
 
 
 Virus employs powerful strategy to inhibit natural killer cell function
 
Virus employs powerful strategy to inhibit natural killer cell functionThe varicella zoster virus (VZV) dampens the immune system by infecting natural killer cells. However, it was not known how, or if, VZV could directly affect natural killer cell function. Using flow cytometry, scientists now understand that VZV uses a potent strategy to paralyze NK cells.
 
 
 UAMS-developed noninvasive device detects melanoma in earliest stages
 
UAMS-developed noninvasive device detects melanoma in earliest stagesScientists have developed a non-invasive device that integrates a laser, ultrasound and phone technologies for the detection of circulating tumor cells in the blood. The portable platform is based on a principle called in vivo photoacoustic flow cytometry.
 
 
 A novel approach to intraplaque mast cell characterization in atherosclerosis
 
A novel approach to intraplaque mast cell characterization in atherosclerosisResearchers from Leiden University in the Netherlands have developed a new technique for characterizing intraplaque mast cells; the primary immune mediators of atherosclerotic plaque development.
