Step 1: Sample preparation
eBioscience™ 10X RBC Lysis Buffer (Multi-species)
Catalog number: 00-4300-54
Contains ammonium chloride, which lyses red blood cells with a minimal effect on lymphocytes when used as instructed. This buffer can be used for lysis of erythrocytes in single-cell suspensions of peripheral blood and hematopoietic tissues from human, mouse, rat, canine, and non-human primate.

Catalog number: 00-4555-56
Can detach cells for flow cytometry analysis in a mild way. Accutase has been shown effective on: fibroblasts, keratinocytes, vascular endothelial cells, hepatocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells, hepatocyte progenitors, etc.
Cell Isolation Using Biotinylated Antibodies
- Any cell type — Use any biotinylated antibody
- Any species — Human, mouse, rat, non-human primates
- Any sample — Whole blood, bone marrow, tissue digests, spleen
- Any application — Cells are ideal for culture, stimulation, DNA/ RNA or protein purification, flow cytometry
Step 1a: Cell isolation and depletion
Negative cell isolation
Negative cell involves labeling unwanted cell types for removal. The unwanted cell types can be bound using magnetic beads coupled to antibodies or ligands that target specific cell surface proteins. The bound, unwanted cells can be depleted from the final isolated fraction by incubating the sample in a magnetic field, leaving desired unbound cells free floating in solution.
Negative cell isolation with Dynabeads magnetic beads
In negative cell isolation, Dynabeads magnetic beads are used to deplete all the unwanted cells using the supplied antibody mix. The target cells are left in the sample untouched and free of beads. The isolated target cells can be directly analyzed in a flow cytometer and used in any functional assay.
Negative cell separation using magnetic beads:
- Is a gentle, tube-based method
- Isolates high yields of pure, viable, and functional cells
- Preserves the cells’ native characteristics

Step 2: Immunophenotyping with antibodies
NovaFluor™ dyes for immunophenotyping
NovaFluor™ dyes are designed for more resolution with narrow emission spectra and minimal cross-laser excitation. Lower spectral spillover or overlap lessens the need for compensation, decreases spreading error, and increases opportunities to add new markers. This aids in construction of flow cytometry panels with increased resolution while expanding the overall size of panels.
- Unique spectral signatures
- Designed with narrow emissions and minimal cross-laser excitation
- Decreased spillover spread for higher resolution
- Stable dyes that can be stored long-term without losing fluorescence as compared to tandem dyes
- Easy to add to existing panels
Immunophenotyping with flow cytometry antibodies
A multicolor flow cytometry panel uses two or more primary conjugated antibodies to identify single cells by detecting multiple antigens. The goal of the panel is to get the maximum signal for effective visualization of cell populations.
- Efficiently build a simple or complex panel with Flow Cytometry Panel Builder online tool.
- Our free Panel Design Service connects you to a team of scientists that will provide you with specialized expert support when building or optimizing your multicolor panel.
- Expand your panel with our wide range of fluorophores for both traditional and spectral analysis.
Brilliant Ultra Violet™ (BUV) conjugated antibodies
BUV dyes use polymer technology to absorb energy and emit light signal. By incorporating BUV dyes in their experiments, scientists can take advantage of a broader range of instrument lasers and channels—including UV—to help reduce compensation necessary in panels with multiple conjugated antibodies. Super Bright dyes and Brilliant Violet™ dyes use similar polymer technologies.
Step 3: Buffer selection
Flow cytometry buffers for sample preparation
Sample preparation is an important step for obtaining statistical value from flow cytometry experiments. Sample preparation reagents for flow cytometry include cell surface staining, intracellular and transcription factor staining buffer sets, cell lysis assays, blocking reagents and magnetic cell isolation beads. Benefits of using these buffers include the following:
- Retains inherent biological characteristics
- Reduce background staining
- Quicker and easier preparation with optimized kits

Step 4: Cell Health dyes
Save time and avoid inaccurate analysis of your cell population by removing dead cells and unwanted artifacts efficiently with the Invitrogen LIVE/DEAD Fixable Dead Cell Stains. The Invitrogen LIVE/DEAD Fixable Viability Dyes are fixable viability dyes that help to ensure accurate assessment of cell viability in samples after fixation and/or permeabilization.
- Flexible - 14 different LIVE/DEAD dyes to choose
- Robust - clear distinction of live and dead cells is preserved for up to 30 days after fixation
- Simple - fit into almost any staining and immunophenotyping protocol
- Unique - 14 novel spectral signatures
Step 5: Experimental Controls
Staining intracellular targets for flow cytometry requires the use of multiple antibodies that often have overlapping fluorescence emission spectra. The emission spillover must be compensated for correctly in order to ensure that the fluorescent signal being measured is due to the fluorochrome of interest and thus the cell population of interest.
