Statistical criteria to establish optimal antibody dilution in flow cytometry analysis

Statistical criteria to establish optimal antibody dilution in flow cytometry analysis.

BACKGROUND In direct techniques of flow cytometry, the optimal antibody dilution or titer point is established from the plateau area of the antibody titration curve. However, the plateau area is defined without any statistical criteria, which may lead to an incorrect selection of antibody dilution. Herein, we report statistical criteria to establish the optimal antibody dilution for CD14, CD8, ...

Paper STATISTICAL CRITERIA TO ESTABLISH BIOASSAY PROGRAMS

A statistical study of fitting log-normal distributions to air sampling concentrations and random intakes is reported in this paper. An improved method on the approximation of a sum of log-normal distributions to a log-normal distribution is used to forecast bioassay results and their uncertainties. These methods can be used in the design and implementation of air control monitoring and bioassa...

A novel statistical analysis and interpretation of flow cytometry data

A recently developed class of models incorporating the cyton model of population generation structure into a conservation-based model of intracellular label dynamics is reviewed. Statistical aspects of the data collection process are quantified and incorporated into a parameter estimation scheme. This scheme is then applied to experimental data for PHA-stimulated CD4+T and CD8+T cells collected...

Statistical file matching of flow cytometry data

Flow cytometry is a technology that rapidly measures antigen-based markers associated to cells in a cell population. Although analysis of flow cytometry data has traditionally considered one or two markers at a time, there has been increasing interest in multidimensional analysis. However, flow cytometers are limited in the number of markers they can jointly observe, which is typically a fracti...
