| - | The Flow Cytometry Facility provides a state of the art flow cytometry service to iMM Lisboa researchers as well as external groups from other research institutes. We aim at training researchers in the adequate use of the instruments and also on flow cytometry principles, experiment planning, as well as data analysis and interpretation. The Flow Cytometry Facility also provides a cell sorting service using two High Speed Cell Sorters (BD FACSAria III and BD FACSAria IIu) operated by dedicated staff. | + | Platform staff is well trained in instrument operation, providing support to experimental planning, sample acquisition, panel design and data analysis. Training is available for all analytical instruments and SOP are implemented to comply with the highest quality standards required to ensure reproducibility in science.\\ |
| - | + | \\ | |
| - | ===== Team ===== | + | If you want to purify a cell population in your sample, we can help you by providing a cell sorting service using 5 high speed cell sorters (BD FACSAria IIu, BD FACSAria Fusion, BD FACSAria III and two BD FACSDiscover S8).\\ |
| + | We’re here to help with your flow cytometry experiments. Get in touch and we’ll give you a guided tour of our facility so you can get the most out of your work with us! | ||

| - | ===== Services ===== | + | * [[supportservices|Support Services]], such as **Consulting** (1st Meeting Project Presentation, Experimental Planning, Sample Preparation, and Troubleshooting), **Panel Design** and **Data Analysis** are available. Book a meeting with our team to discuss your experiments and how we can support you. |
| - | Our flow cytometers are grouped into two categories: cell analyzers and cell sorters. Cell Analyzers are instruments for acquisition only, cells cannot be recovered once they are analyzed in the instrument. Cell sorters are capable of physically “sorting” out a population(s) of interest. | + | * If you need to use our analyzers frequently, follow the [[newuser|Training guidelines]] to have **Training** in our systems. Depending on your needs and usage frequency, you may acquire data with our assistance. We recommend booking a meeting with our team to discuss your needs and options. |
