Depression, in psychology, is a mood or emotional state marked by feelings of low self-worth or guilt and a reduced ability to enjoy life. A person who is depressed usually experiences several of the following symptoms: feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or
Tips for Staining Rare Antigens with MHC Tetramers
When performing staining with MHC tetramers, there may be certain cases where the staining is unclear. An example could be in certain cases where an antigen-specific T cell population of interest has a low frequency. The following tips discussed in

Blood Stabilisation: The Importance in a Clinical Setting
Without stabilisation, flow cytometric analysis of blood samples must be performed within 48 hours of venepuncture, as apoptosis and proteolytic degradation of cellular markers will detrimentally affect the immunophenotypic profile. Blood samples older than 48 hours are often no longer
Classical Media vs Specialty Media
For decades, researchers have been culturing cells to study normal and diseased biological processes. Many of these studies use immortalized cell lines which proliferate indefinitely in culture. Immortalized cells thrive in classical media formulated with the minimum requirements for cell
