This third edition is the product of the author's 25 years of experience with flow cytometry; although it covers the wide spectrum of hematopoietic tumors, the focus remains on most important clinical diagnoses, such as acute promyelocytic leukemia, identification of blasts,...
This document establishes performance guidelines for applying the science of flow cytometry (FCM) to RBC diagnostic testing. It provides guidelines for: • Specimen collection, handling, and storage • Procedures for calibrating instruments • Procedures for QC of blood samples Specific...
This guideline describes criteria for optimizing flow cytometry crossmatching and the detection of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alloantibody by solid-phase methods in conventional and multiplex platforms. Specific areas include technical consideration for instrument setup and...
The scope of this document is to establish performance guidelines for the identification and enumeration of lymphocyte subpopulations and the enumeration of CD34+ hematopoietic progenitors using immunofluorescence-b
This International Standard specifies a standardized method for the quantification of active and/or total lactic acid bacteria and probiotic strains in starter cultures used in dairy products by means of flow cytometry. The method is also applicable to probiotics used in dairy...
This document outlines the essential factors that affect automated reticulocyte counting using flow cytometric principles. The designated Class C comparative method (see Section 4, Definitions) is the new methylene blue (NMB) staining of blood collected in ethylenediaminetetra
The field of microfluidic flow cytometry is growing at a fast rate. This volume describes the development of inexpensive, portable flow cytometers through incorporation of microfluidic technologies and small optical components. The book discusses the underlying microfluidic...
Written by world-renowned experts, this book addresses immunological and molecular methodologies of diagnosis as well as clinical aspects of diseases. It book discusses DNA and RNA amplification methods, explains ELISA approaches, and introduces rapid diagnosis techniques, biosensors, and...

This document provides guidance for the performance of single cell immune response assays within the clinical context of infectious diseases (especially HIV), cancer, transplantation, autoimmune disease, and allergies. This guideline focuses on antigen-specific functional assays within CD4 and CD8...
The increasing global demand for potable water and the economy of scale in desalinating water will increase large-scale Sea Water Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) plants in future. However, organic/biological fouling in SWRO membranes caused due to seasonal proliferation of algae and algal released organic...
"A thorough examination of labonachip circuitlevel operations to improve system performance A rapidly aging population demands rapid, costeffective, flexible, personalized diagnostics. Existing systems tend to fall short in one or more capacities, making the development of alternatives a priority....
This guideline addresses the detection of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) by populationbased newborn screening (NBS) using dried blood spot (DBS) specimens. The guideline is intended to facilitate the incorporation of SCID NBS into the routine operation of existing NBS programs....
