Cells constantly recycle proteins and other cellular components. But how do they ensure that the right cargo ends up in the ...

Newswise — Single-cell technologies have transformed biological research by revealing cellular heterogeneity that bulk measurements cannot capture. Widely used methods such as fluorescence-activated ...

Chinese researchers have developed an advanced, high-throughput single-cell sorting platform that enables direct isolation of living cells with targeted metabolic profiles from large mutant libraries.

Within complex biological samples, the most important cells are often the hardest to find. Identifying, characterizing, and isolating rare or functionally-distinct populations has become central to ...

Flow cytometry is an established technique for counting and characterising cells, including blood, stem and cancer cells in biomedicine. The principle involves illuminating cells while they pass along ...

Super-resolution imaging and mathematical modelling show that clathrin-mediated endocytosis sorts lipids only weakly, with ...

Researchers have developed and demonstrated a new method for high-throughput single-cell sorting that uses stimulated Raman spectroscopy rather than the traditional approach of fluorescence-activated ...

This article is based on a poster originally authored by Barbie Wang, Maria Giebler, Adrian Freeman, Karen Hogg, Adam Corrigan and Hitesh Sanganee. This poster is being hosted on this website in its ...

Flow cytometry and cell sorting are indispensable techniques allowing for the rapid and quantitative analysis of individual cells within a heterogeneous population. By leveraging laser-based ...

Currently, it is a difficult and laborious process to place two cells in contact with each other to examine their binding characteristics. It is however a necessary step in understanding how cells ...

The segregation of two cell types at the earliest stages of embryo development may be enabled by differences in their stiffness. Baby picture. During a mammalian embryo’s blastocyst stage (mouse ...

Channel-Free Single-Cell Sorting in Air with Tunable Paths. Schematic illustration of the in-air microfluidic single-cell sorting platform. Cell suspensions are encapsulated into droplets and ejected ...
