Using flow cytometry, we explored a case of nonspecific immunodeficiency in a seven month old girl with repeated infections. This method showed evidence of granulocyte phagocytosis and oxidative metabolism abnormalities suggesting the diagnosis of a variant form of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). Findings also showed that flow cytometry can be useful to study phagocytic cells during the neonatal period as it allows rapid multiparametric analysis with a very small amount of blood.

Here, we present a protocol for guiding tissue preparation and flow cytometric analysis in subcutaneous murine tumor models and secondary lymphoid organs. We describe steps for dissociating tumors, spleens, and lymph nodes to obtain single-cell suspensions. We then detail procedures for immune cell staining and analysis and gating strategies including the use of fluorescence-minus-one controls (FMOs).

Bacterial colonisation in hypertrophic scars (HSs) has been reported, yet the precise mechanism of their contribution to scar formation remains elusive. To address this, we examined HS and normal skin (NS) tissues through Gram staining and immunofluorescence. We co-cultured fibroblasts with heat-inactivated Staphylococcus aureus (S.

Introduction: Platelet transfusion has been therapeutically used in patients with thrombocytopenia and platelet function defects over the years. The use of advanced techniques may add value in assessing the quality of platelet products. The aim of the study was to assess stored platelet concentrates (PCs) prepared in blood banks for platelet indices, clot strength, and platelet function.
