Product news

Accuri Cytometers Inc. will present the Accuri C6 Flow Cytometer® as an attractive, flexible alternative to traditional methods and an essential addition to life science laboratories. Accuri will highlight the ease-of-use and versatility of the C6 by focusing on data analysis of research experiments such as transfection efficiency in mixed populations, calcium flux and multiplex bead applications. Visit booth 1132 to find out more.

The Presentation, A New Alternative to Traditional Methods for Measuring Transfection Efficiency, Cell Counting & RNAi, will take place Sunday, December 6, 6:15-8:15, in Room 11 A/B at the San Diego Conference Center. Refreshments will be provided. The showcase includes:

• A Flow Cytometric Method for Continuous Measurement of Intracellular Calcium Concentration presented by Dr. Alfonso Blanco Fernández, Flow Cytometry Core Facilities Manager, Conway Institute of Biomolecular & Biomedical Research University College Dublin.
• Macrophage Polarization Studies with Cell-based and Multiplex-bead Analysis; Trials and Tribulations of Population Characterization presented by Dr. Doris Wiener, Associate in Research, University of South Florida College of Medicine, Children’s Research Institute, Department of Pediatrics.
• Cell Counting and Molecular Biology Applications presented by Clare Rogers, Application Scientist, Accuri Cytometers.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays. Find the best flow cytometers, cell counters and cell sorters in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.RNA InterferenceRNA interference (RNAi) uses siRNA or miRNA for transcriptional silencing, gene knockdown and regulation of gene expression. RNAi requires chemical synthesis, introduction of DNA vectors into cells, an assay of RNAi effects and RNAi quantification or analysis. Consider target sequence selection, reagent preparation, controls, high specificity and effectiveness and low non-specific gene knockdown.Cell BiologyCell biology studies the structure, function, and behavior of cells. Understanding cellular processes is essential for research in areas such as cancer biology, stem cell research, and neurobiology. Techniques like flow cytometry, microscopy, and cell culture enable researchers to explore cellular mechanisms in detail.
