The Cancer Stem Cell model proposes that a special group of dormant cells in the cancer population plays a key role in tumor development and growth, as well as regeneration following treatment. Find out how researchers Stacy Blain and Danielle Joseph are using the S3 Cell Sorter in studying potential cancer stem cells for multiple myeloma.

Cell sorting technology is not new. However, sometimes taking a new look at a mature technology brings unexpected results. See how we reimagined drop delay calculation, rethought software and automation, and more during the design and development of Bio-Rad’s S3 Cell Sorter.

Until recently, cell sorting has been a complex endeavor requiring specialized facilities and trained technicians. This infographic reveals how Bio-Rad’s S3 cell sorter makes this technique available to individual, non-expert researchers in 3 easy steps.

The S3 cell sorter is Bio-Rad’s new addition to the world of flow cytometry. Take a look at how this instrument breaks the mold for cell sorters, brings relief to investigators and core lab managers alike, and opens up exciting new research possibilities.

Bio-Rad’s microplate readers function at their full potential when used with Microplate Manager Software. This updated version of the software features two new read modes, compatibility with the latest operating systems, and more.

Cell sorting is a complex and expensive process, with complicated steps requiring training. Bio-Rad’s new S3™ cell sorter is compact, easy to use, automated, affordable, and provides exceptional sort purity and yield results.

Bio-Rad’s new TC20 automated cell counter is compatible with broad range of cell sizes and types such as cell lines, primary cells (from tissue or blood), and stem cells.

This report demonstrates that the TC10 automated cell counter is a suitable alternative to the Coulter Counter and hemocytometer for the preparation of custom Bio-Plex assays.

Rossi considers the discovery of RNAi as pivotal to antiviral discovery. “RNAi has become another important, powerful genetic tool we can use to further our antiviral work,” he says. Rossi’s lab became the first to publish research demonstrating the expression of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to inhibit HIV replication in human cells. Various aspects of RNAi and siRNAs continue to play a key role in his research on viral diseases and lymphomas.
