The Pediatric/Winship Flow Cytometry Core provides cytometry services for the analysis and sorting of cells as well as expert consultation for experimental design and planning. The Flow Cytometry Core offers access to several analytical flow cytometers (9), an imaging cytometer as well as high-speed cell sorters (2). Training and technical expertise is available to enable our users to improve the quality and scope of their research. Contact Aaron Rae for any questions. The Flow Cytometry Core also offers immunological-based assay services, please contact core director David Archer for questions.
BSL2 safety practices should be employed in the facility. Primary human cells or cells exposed to recombinant virus should be fixed before analysis on the instruments.
NO food or drinks are permitted in Flow Core spaces.
