Abstract |
Flow cytometry is an objective, sensitive and quantitative technique which allows rapid and simultaneous analysis of several parameters on a great number of cells. Hence, flow cytometry is particularly suitable for the analysis of complex cell populations, rare events and quantitative studies. In immunohematology, flow cytometry is a very powerful approach to the study of mixed red cell populations (hematopoietic chimerism, transfusion or bone marrow transplantation), the detection of low frequency cell populations (reticulocytes, fetomaternal hemorrhage) and the quantitative analysis of red blood cell antigens.
