kuvacytometria

Kuvacytometria, also known as flow cytometry, is a technique used in biology and medicine to analyze the physical and chemical characteristics of individual cells. It is widely used for cell sorting, cell cycle analysis, and immune cell phenotyping. The process involves suspending cells in a fluid stream, which is then illuminated by a laser. As the cells pass through the laser beam, they scatter light at specific angles, and the scattered light is detected by photomultiplier tubes. The intensity of the scattered light and the fluorescence emitted by the cells are measured and analyzed to determine the characteristics of the cells.

Flow cytometry can be used to analyze a wide range of cell types, including blood cells, cancer cells, and stem cells. It is a powerful tool for studying cell biology, immunology, and oncology. The technique is also used in clinical settings for diagnosing and monitoring diseases such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. Flow cytometry has revolutionized the field of cell biology and continues to be an essential tool for researchers and clinicians alike.
