A rapid, objective method for the detection of lymphocytotoxic antibodies using flow cytometry. 1987

Whilst several centres have reported lymphocytotoxic antibody detection using single and dual fluorescent stains with analysis of the fluorescence emitted from the cell population present in a well of a multiwell plate, problems are encountered with cell concentration and light emission overlap. A method we have developed using flow cytometry produces similar values of percentage cell death using single or double staining techniques (correlation coefficient = 0.9896). This method is not influenced by slight variation in cell number or light emission overlap. The effect of introducing red cell impurities into the normal lymphocyte preparation is described.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011419 Propidium Quaternary ammonium analog of ethidium; an intercalating dye with a specific affinity to certain forms of DNA and, used as diiodide, to separate them in density gradients; also forms fluorescent complexes with cholinesterase which it inhibits.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
