Automated flow cytometry staining protocol video

Now Watchinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ulHp811OYE This video demonstrates the AUTO1000 accomplishing an automated standard cell staining protocol to prepare samples for analysis by flow cytometry. The video is set at 40X speed. Notice how fast the Laminar Wash step is executed, relative to the “rate limiting steps” of automatic pipetting, as well as how clear those wells are after washing! Highlights […]

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 […]

Centrifuge-Less Automation of Suspension Cell Sample Preparation

Now Watchinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkxcKl8DNMc In our webinar from February 24, 2021, Curiox Applications Scientist Ann Wang and Peak Analysis and Automation (PAA) Technical Director Dr. Malcolm Crook discussed how Laminar Wash™ technology can readily automate sample preparation, sans centrifuge. Ann starts things off, introducing Laminar Wash technology and Curiox solutions for automated cell prep. She also addressed questions in the Q&A with data. Highlights include: […]

Automating cell prep with Laminar Wash–SLAS 2021

Now Watchinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bisHv1x1lkE Description Laminar Wash technology offers a centrifuge-less sample preparation method that can be readily automated. Our presentation at the Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening (SLAS) 2021 conference, Curiox Applications Scientist Ann Wang and Sales Manager Dr. Darren Warnick discussed cell prep automation. In the first part of the talk, Dr. Darren Warnick […]

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 […]

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 […]

Flow Cytometry Survey Results – How Do You Compare to Your Peers?

Results from a December 2017 survey of 68 flow cytometry users and managers in pharma and biotech. Flow cytometrists were also asked about a new product from Curiox that washes cells without centrifugation. How do you compare to your peers?
