New Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) core

The Center for Reproductive Biology (CRB) at WSU is pleased to announce the creation of a new Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) core located on the Pullman campus.  FACS allows for specific subsets of cells to be isolated in purity from a heterogeneous population.  In addition, isolation of single cells can be achieved using FACS allowing for critical examination of heterogeneity within diverse populations.  The core contains two new state-of-the-art FACS machines manufactured by Sony Biotechnology that are capable of sorting cells based on a multitude of parameters including four different colors.  The core is staffed by an experienced technician who is available to conduct cell sorting experiments for investigators on a fee-for-service basis.

Interested in using FACS in your research program?  Please visit the CRB FACS Core website for further information, https://crb.vetmed.wsu.edu/core-laboratories/facs-core
