Flow Cytometry Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Flow cytometry is a key tool that has revolutionized our ability to interrogate highly specific cell populations.

Flow cytometry hematopoietic stem cells.

However despite over 40 years of research working with hscs in the mouse remains challenging because of the relative ab. Hematopoietic stem cells hscs can only be definitively identified and characterized through in vivo experiments that measure the ability of hscs to reconstitute the hematopoietic system following transplantation. The technique is primarily based on fluorochrome conjugated antibodies against cell surface markers of hscs and the physiological properties of hscs such as high efflux activity of certain fluorescent dyes. Various studies have been conducted to identify hematopoietic stem cells hscs using flow cytometry.
