Flow Cytometry

Cell sorting and analysis facilities at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê ensure researchers have timely access to equipment, resources and expertise necessary to undertake world-leading research.

About the STP

The Cell Sorting and Analysis Science Technology Platform (STP) at University College London (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê) is dedicated to providing researchers with access to cutting-edge flow cytometry and cell sorting instrumentation and expertise. It offers a range of services including cell sorting, multi-parameter analysis, and data analysis support. ​

Researchers can utilize the platform for various applications such as multicolour immunophenotyping, fluorescent protein detection eg GFP, Apoptosis, cell cycle analysis, cell viability, FRET and cytokine detection. The STP is equipped with state-of-the-art flow cytometry analysers/cell sorters with both conventional and spectral based technology and offers training programs to researchers to help them optimize their experiments and analyse their data effectively.Ìý
