Breast Cancer Flow Cytometry Analysis

Introduction of Flow Cytometry

Breast cancer (BC), the most common malignancy in women worldwide, is a very heterogeneous disease characterized by a diverse molecular profile. Flow cytometry is a technology that can quickly, accurately, and objectively analyze multiple characteristics of each cell or subcellular structure that passes through the detector. While analyzing these detection substances, it can also sort specific groups. The technology is widely used in the detection and analysis of a variety of diseases, including malignancies, where it can provide diagnostic recommendations, guide treatment, and be used to track disease progression. Especially in the early stages of anti-tumor drug development, complex cell analysis through flow cytometry technology can provide scientific researchers with maximum effective data.
