Other Useful Resource

There are many resources on the Web for flow and imaging cytometry. A few very useful ones are listed below. Please email us if you find any of the links not working.

• International Society for Analytical Cytology The main professional organization supporting flow cytometry. Links to training, employment, and conferences.

 

• Current Protocols in Cytometry Online access to through Lane Library. You must be connecting from a Stanford IP address or using a VPN connection to Stanford School of Medicine.

 

• Holden Maker's Weblog An experienced Immunologist and former Stanford post doc and BD scientist who has been "Mr. Mom" for the past several years. Excellent infomation on flow cytometry applications, epecially intracellular staining, and great pics of Julia.

 

• BD Spectrum Viewer  A useful Java applet put together by Joe Trotter of BD Biosciences. You can view the excitation and emission spectra of many common fluorescent dyes for help in panel design.

• Invitrogen Spectrum Viewer An applet similar to the above that has all of the Invtrogen reagents, as well as common fluorchromes.

 

• Purdue Cytometry Core Lab This site is an access point for many resources for flow and image cytometry, including a well-used discussion list. There is also a VERY useful discussion summary section at http://www.cyto.purdue.edu/hmarchiv//web_summaries/index.htm.

 

• Beckman-Coulter Flow Resource This site has many resources, includeing discussions of tetrmers, and Howard Shapiro's magnum opus "Practical Flow Cytometry".
