Equipment

Location

  • The Amnis ImageStreamX MkII is in room G669, a BSL-1 designated laboratory, and the NovoCyte flow cytometer is in the BSL-2 laboratory, G667, in the Guyton Research Building.

Core services

The core provides training in imaging flow cytometry and flow cytometric analysis, as well as consultations on experimental design and data interpretation. The core is not a drop-off service facility. After being trained and certified, the user operates the instruments.

To discuss an experiment or book the instrument, please contact Dr. Eva Bengtén.

IMPORTANT: Because the ImageStreamX MkII was purchased using NIH funds, (Mississippi Center of Excellence in Perinatal Research (MS-CEPR)-COBRE, Award: P20GM121334), publications utilizing data acquired with the ImageStream must acknowledge this grant. Please use the following language in publications in which you have used the ImageStream for your experiments:
