Cell Biology
Flow cytometry is a powerful analytical technique used to measure and analyze physical and chemical characteristics of cells or particles as they flow in a fluid stream through a beam of light. This method allows for the rapid quantification of multiple parameters at once, such as cell size, granularity, and the presence of specific markers, which is crucial for understanding cell survival mechanisms, different forms of cell death, and the dynamics of cell cultures.
