FlowCam – Flow Imaging Microscopy (FIM) Guides Forced Degradation of Cell-based Medicinal Products (CBMP)

21/09/2021

Cell-based medicinal products (CBMPs) offer promising opportunities for the treatment of diseases with previously limited or no therapeutic options. However, the complexity and intrinsically fragile nature of these CBMPs create significant challenges in formulation development, analytical characterization, manufacturing, and stability assessment. This recent study used a FlowCam, Flow Imaging Microscope (FIM) assisted by machine learning […]

FlowCam Nano Provides Counts, Sizes and Images of Nano- and Microparticles

13/09/2021

Application to a therapeutic protein pumping study performed at Skagg School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Sub-visible particle characterization is a critical method for assessing drug substance and drug product quality and stability. In this study, we evaluated the capabilities of the new FlowCam Nano (which utilizes patented oil immersion flow microscopy), in conjunction with […]

Bioanalytical Protein-Protein Detection with the P4SPR

SPR platform based on ionic liquids for the detection of a breast cancer biomarker in cell lysates The detection of biomarkers in real biological samples poses a real challenge in medical diagnostics. Samples may be blood, serum, plasma, cell lysate, urine, and saliva; these biofluids contain numerous cellular components that are amenable to high biofouling […]

The Benefits of Flow Imaging Microscopy

10/08/2021

The FlowCam flow imaging cytometer and particle analyser gives you more detailed, more accurate results than traditional volumetric techniques like flow cytometry, laser diffraction, and light obscuration. Most particle analysers and particle counters provide only a distribution of particle size. The FlowCam gives you over 40 different measurements for each particle, as quickly as the […]

FlowCam Reveals Silicone Oil Droplets and Other Particulates in Intravitreal Injections (IVIs)

07/04/2021

Silicone oil has long been used in the pharmaceutical industry as a lubricant for syringes. It serves to reduce the force necessary to depress the plunger, and can make procedures more comfortable and safer for the doctor and patient as it allows the needle to slide more easily through the eye wall. A recent paper […]
