How to wash away barriers to therapeutic cancer vaccine development
Developing neoantigen-based cancer vaccines necessitates comprehensive cellular characterization for iterative therapeutic improvement, which Laminar Wash™ systems may facilitate at multiple steps. Vaccines are probably the second-most effective advancement in the annals of human medicine, after sanitation. Most of us recognize the value of vaccines in infectious disease. Yet, swept under the rug amongst the COVID-19 global pandemic is another form of immune-boosting injection combating a terrible […]
Overcoming challenging cell analysis with next-generation sample prep technology
Laminar wash technology enables researchers to perform routine, thorough, and gentle cell washes, especially for troublesome and low cell count populations. Researchers are delivering on the promise of genomic and cell biology to cure individual cancers and correct genetic disorders at breakneck speed. Feeding this acceleration has been unprecedented advances in cellular analysis—characterizing and selecting […]
The Curiox Case for Better Cell Analysis
Curiox Biosystems to Advance Next-Generation Cancer Cell Therapies Through Collaboration with Leading Cancer Researcher January 21, 2021 In, 1885, German biologist Wilhelm Roux took part of the brain from a chicken embryo and placed it in warm saline solution, keeping it alive for several days. Simple as the experiment was, it seeded the idea that […]
Developing a 43 color panel on Cytek Aurora using Laminar Wash for Sample Prep
The advent of modern flow cytometers and flow cytometric methods has accelerated researchers’ ability to enhance the resolution of samples analyzed. Within a span of 20 years, flow cytometry panels have ballooned from a handful of channels to well over 40. The theoretical limit of flow panels now lies not in the available fluorophores or […]
Laminar Wash™ Technology Enabled Accurate Identification of Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocyte (TIL) Population
Immunotherapy, a treatment that harnesses the patients’ own immune systems to fight off cancer, is revolutionizing cancer treatment. Since the original success in melanoma, significant advances have led to novel immunotherapeutic approaches for treatment of various types of cancer, with a large number of clinical trials being currently underway. The successful anti-tumor immune response is […]
Washing Whole Blood Without a Centrifuge – Human and Mouse
Lysing and washing red blood cells using traditional microtiter plates or tubes may result in significant cell loss and damage. There is now a better way to lyse RBCs while achieving clean antibody staining and lysis as good as or better than traditional methods. The new Laminar Wash™ System offers centrifuge-less blood lysis and leukocyte […]
