Flow cytometry is a way to look closely at the features of cells or particles. A sample of blood or tissue goes into a machine called a cytometer. In less than a minute, a computer can analyze ...

Around the same time, Mack Fulwyler, an engineer working at Los Alamos National Laboratory, needed to separate particles, so he drew on existing techniques to create droplets to separate cells from a ...

Flow cytometry detects and measures the chemical and physical properties and characteristics of particles or cells within a population. Samples are suspended in a liquid, held in a tube, and counted ...
