Mack Jett Fulwyler, pioneer of flow cytometry and flow sorting (1936-2001).
In any society, professional or otherwise, certain individuals stand out by virtue of their ability, leadership qualities, other personal attributes, or combinations thereof. Mack Fulwyler had all of these but somehow even more. His philosophy of life, revealed in the manner with which he dealt with others, reminded one of Henry Thoreau with respect to the grandeur of nature, Thomas Edison with...
متن کاملApplication of flow cytometry and cell sorting to megakaryocytopoiesis.
We have employed flow cytometry (FCM) and cell sorting to quantitate and study megakaryocytes in mouse and rat femoral marrow following their 20- to 30-fold concentration by centrifugal elutriation (CE). This enrichment of megakaryocytes permitted the first determination of their DNA-related fluorescence by FCM analysis following DNA staining. Fluorescence distributions of CE-enriched cell frac...
متن کاملFlow Cytometry-Based Analysis and Sorting of Lung Dendritic Cells
Dendritic cells (DC) are very specialized antigen presenting cells which play critical roles in innate and adaptive immunity and in tolerance. Their major functions are to sample antigens throughout the body and to stimulate or tolerize T cells. DC consist of several distinct subsets with different tissue distribution, surface markers, and function. This chapter discusses the lung DC subsets, t...
متن کاملUltrahigh-throughput sorting of microfluidic drops with flow cytometry.
The detection and sorting of aqueous drops is central to microfluidic workflows for high-throughput biology applications, including directed evolution, digital PCR, and antibody screening. However, high-throughput detection and sorting of drops require optical systems and microfluidic components that are complex, difficult to build, and often yield inadequate sensitivity and throughput. Here, w...
متن کاملFlow Cytometry
Flow cytometry is a technology that has impacted both basic cell biology and clinical medicine in a very significant manner. The essential principle of flow cytometry is that single particles suspended within a stream of liquid are interrogated individually in a very short time as they pass through a light source focused at a very small region. The optical signals generated are mostly spectral ...
