Fcm calibur ow cytometer

Manufactured by BD

The BD FACSCalibur flow cytometer is a high-performance instrument designed for a wide range of applications in cell analysis and sorting. It utilizes two laser beams, a blue (488 nm) and a red (635 nm), to excite fluorescently-labeled cells or particles. The instrument can simultaneously detect and analyze up to 4 different fluorescent parameters, as well as forward and side scatter. The FACSCalibur is capable of generating high-quality data and providing accurate and reliable results for various research and clinical applications.

Cells activated in an MLR were allowed to incubate for up to 3 days before harvesting.
[3H]Thymidine(0.5μCi/well; MPBiomedicals) was added 24h before harvesting (SkatronInstruments) using Type A lter mats (Perkin-Elmer Life and Analytical Sciences) and a beta plate scintillation mixture (Perkin-Elmer). Disintegrations per minute were determined using a liquid scintillation counter (1205 Betaplate; Perkin-Elmer).
ELISA assay for quantitating cytokine production X-ray-irradiated DC (2×10 4 ) and the T cells (1×10 5 ) were seeded into wells of 96-well at-bottom culture plates in RPMI 1640 10% fetal bovine serum (Invitrogen Life Technologies) for 3 days. Supernatants were removed and further analyzed for cytokine production (IL-2 and IFN-γ) with ELISA. Plates were read at 405 nm using a Labsystems Multiskan enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay reader.
Flow cytometry for detecting activation marker expression FCM assay was used to characterize activation marker expression of T cells. CD4 + or CD8 + T cells were cocultured with DCs for 3 days. The cells were washed with PBS and then stained with anti-CD3-PE, anti-CD25-FITC and anti-CD69-APC at 4 •C for 1h, and then washed by PBS. CD25 and CD69 activation markers were measured using a FCM Calibur ow cytometer (BD company). Data were analyzed with CellQuest software.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
