Applications
T/NKcell mediatedcytotoxicity
By labeling the target tumor cells with CFSE or transfect with GFP. Hoechst 33342 is used for stain all cells (both T cells and tumor cells), alternatively, target tumor cells can be stained with CFSE, PI is used for stain the dead cells (both T cells and tumor cells). This staining strategy allows for the discriminate of different cells.
Cell Apoptosis
The different phases of apoptosis are segmented into an early, middle and late stage. Specified indicators can document the single stages of apoptosis. The Countstar® FL offers a visualized image-based solution and analyzes all of these steps with pre-loaded protocols in depth.
Cell CycleCountstar Rigel S6 enables users to get the result of a cell cycle quickly and accurately. Counstar Rigel S6 can analyze proportion of cell in different phase of the cell cycle.
Surface Maker Analysis
A lymphocyte subsets analysis is a typical experiment performed in cell related research fields and various diseases diagnosis. Countstar® Rigel S6 offers a faster and easier way to make immune cell typing more efficient. With visible cell images and powerful data analysis
Affinity of antibody
Detect affinity of antibody in cell level is an important indicator of monoclonal antibody detection using immunofluorescence method.The Countstar® Rigel S6 offers a rapid, direct and reliable evaluating method for the affinity of antibody detection in antibody drug screening
GFP Transfection Efficiency
In cell and molecular biology, the GFP gene is frequently used as a reporter of expression. Currently, scientists are commonly using the fluorescent microscopes or flow cytometers to analyze the transfection efficiency of mammalian cells. But Flow cytometer requires a high-qualified and experienced operator. While Countstar Rigel S6 enables users to get the result of a transfection efficiency assay quickly and accurately.
