Flow Cytometry

The Institute of Pharmacology is equipped with Becton-Dickinson FACSCalibur (4 color), and FACSVerse 8 color Flow Cytometer instruments and FACSLyric able to detect up to 12 colors. A service is provided for analyzing potential pathogenic mechanisms of eosinophilic disorders and other inflammatory diseases. Monitoring of patients under immunomodulatory therapy is also included. The costs are currently covered by research grants of the coordinator (Prof. H.-U. Simon, FAMH Clinical Immunology), who can also be consulted for scientific support. Usage of the flow cytometer by non-members of the institute within collaborative projects is also possible.
