Tissue specific multipotent stem cells including mscs originated from pluripotent embryonic stem cells remain in the adult body throughout the individual s lifetime and are recruited for endogenous tissue repair. Functional stem cell characteristics like atp binding cassette abc transporter activity for side population sp analysis 35 36 and aldehyde dehydrogenase isoform 1 aldh1 activity are common metabolic features to identify and analyze cscs 36 37. 323 442 7942 boydjeff usc edu bernadette masinsin technical specialist.

However despite over 40 years of research working with hscs in the mouse remains challenging because of the relative ab. Multi color flow cytometry simultaneously detected.

As instrumentation reagents and analytical tools have improved flow cytometry has been applied brilliantly to the study of heterogeneous liquid tissues such as blood and bone marrow as well as other easily dissociated solid tissues such as lymph node and spleen. The instruments use fluoresence activated cell sorting facs technology to count and examine cells and dna and provide simultaneous analysis of the physical and chemical characteristics of. Various studies have been conducted to identify hematopoietic stem cells hscs using flow cytometry. Multiparametric flow cytometry is the method of choice for the analysis of cscs.

The technique is primarily based on fluorochrome conjugated antibodies against cell surface markers of hscs and the physiological properties of hscs such as high efflux activity of certain fluorescent dyes.
