C6 flow cytometry

Manufactured by BD
Sourced in United States

The C6 flow cytometry is a laboratory instrument used for the analysis and sorting of cells and other particles. It is designed to measure the physical and chemical characteristics of these cells or particles as they flow in a fluid stream through a beam of light. The C6 flow cytometer provides quantitative data on parameters such as cell size, granularity, and fluorescence, allowing researchers to identify and analyze different cell populations.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The pro-apoptotic effect of TF was evaluated by DAPI staining and flow cytometry assay using annexin-V/PI staining. For DAPI staining, B16F10 cells were seeded into 24-well plates at 1.5 ×105 cells/well and treated with TF at low, medium, high concentrations for 24h, followed by fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS for 30 min at room temperature and staining with DAPI for 10 min in dark. After wash for three times, the cells were observed using five coverslips under Carl Zeiss fluorescence microscope (Göttingen, Germany) and the apoptotic cells were counted. For flow cytometry assay, B16F10 cells were seeded into 6-well plates at 3×105 cells/well for 24 h and treated with TF at low, medium, high concentrations for 72 h. Afterwards, the cells were washed twice and labeled with annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate solution and PI in binding buffer. Fluorescence intensity of the cells was detected by BD C6 flow cytometry (CA, USA). The early apoptotic and late apoptotic cell rates (%) were calculated.

Flow cytometry analysis: HaCaT cells were cultured at 1 × 105 cells well−1 in 12 well plates. When the cells properly adhered, the medium was removed and FITC-loaded PLGA nanoparticle suspension (100 µg ml−1) was incubated for 1, 2, 4 and 8 h. After different exposure times, cells were washed twice with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and harvested using trypsin–EDTA (0.25% v/v). The results were recorded using a BD C6 flow cytometry (FACS) with a 488 nm laser. For each experiment, a total of 10 000 cells were gated per sample and each sample was performed in triplicate.
Confocal laser scanning microscopy: laser confocal microscopy (Ti-E A1, Nikon, Japan) was used to qualitatively analyse the localization of fluorescent nanoparticles in HaCaT cells. The cells were seeded at 5 × 104 cells well−1 in 24-well plates containing glass coverslips. After incubation with fluorescent nanoparticles for a certain period of time, the cells were washed gently with PBS three times and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min. Finally, cells were stained with 4,6-diamidino-2 phenylindole (DAPI) for 5 min.

Cell apoptosis was determined by DAPI staining and annexin-V/PI staining-based flow cytometry. For DAPI staining, A375 cells were seeded into 96-well plates and treated with TF at low, medium, and high concentrations for 24 h, followed by fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS for 30 min at room temperature and staining with DAPI for 10 min in dark. After thrice wash, cells were observed using five coverslips under Carl Zeiss fluorescence microscope (Göttingen, Germany) and the apoptotic cells were counted. Flow cytometry was conducted according to the manufacturer′s instruction. Briefly, A375 cells were seeded into 6-well plates at 3×105 cells/well for 24 h and treated with TF at low, medium, and high concentrations for another 48 h. Afterwards, the cells were washed twice and labeled with annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate solution and PI in binding buffer. Fluorescence intensity of the cells was detected by BD C6 flow cytometry (CA, USA). The analysis was replicated and the early apoptotic and late apoptotic cell rates (%) were calculated.

Cell flow cytometry was performed 48 h after siRNA transfection. Cells were collected using EDTA-free trypsin, washed twice using 0.5 ml PBS, suspended in cold 70% ethanol, and stored in 4 °C overnight. Ethanol was removed and cells were re-suspended in PBS the next day followed by 0.05 mg/ml Propidium Iodide (PI) addition. Cells were kept in darkness on ice for 30 min before being sent to BD C6 flow cytometry. Analysis was performed using the flowjo software.

The human primary granulosa cells were seeded in 12-well plates at the density of 3–4 × 105cells/well, conventionally cultured for 24 h, and then starved in the starvation culture medium for 24 h. The adherent granulosa cells were collected by trypsin digestion after treatment with 10 μM Baicalin for 72 h, according to the instructions of an Annexin V-FITC/PI Apoptosis Detection Kit (KeyGen Biotech, Nanjing, People’s Republic of China). Briefly, the cells were collected using a trypsin digestion solution without EDTA, washed twice with pre-cooled PBS, and centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 5 min. Subsequently, the cell pellet was suspended in 500 μL binding buffer, and 5 μL Annexin-FITC was added and mixed well. Then, 5 μL of propidium iodide was added and mixed well, and the mixture was kept in the dark at 22–25 °C for 5–15 min, followed by cell apoptosis detection using BD C6 Flow Cytometry (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) within 1 h.

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.
