Means of detecting as well as quantifying the presence of individual particles, such as cells, with specific properties within a liquid.
Flow Cytometry involves relatively large machines and narrow tubes through which fluid flows along with detectors such that the presence of the to-be-detected entity as it flows through the tube is indicated and may be discriminated in terms of its properties from other entities that also can flow through this tube. |
Flow cytometry can be combined with, e.g., fluorescent labeling towards better discrimination among particles or cells.
