Beckman Coulter Highlights flexibility in Sorting Bacteria in Educational Webinar
YORBA LINDA, Calif. (PRWEB) June 29, 2018 -- Beckman Coulter’s MoFlo Astrios serves or multidisciplinary Department of Biology through an open access Bioscience Technology Imaging and Cytometry Core Lab at the University of York. Through this educational webinar, data will be presented demonstrating the variety of cell sorts that have been undertaken. This will look at bacterial samples that are being selected for their fluorescent protein expression through to the large plant protoplasts.
The presentation, which is sponsored by Beckman Coulter Life Sciences, will not only look at samples, but how best to approach sorting varied sample types to give us the best success rates for each samples type with tips and tricks along the way.
Speakers will discuss immunology driven data sets that are being used for downstream RNA and Mass Spectrometry analyses followed by the need for sterile sorting for human prostate research and samples that require multiwall plate sorting and the strategies used to get near 100 percent success rates for single cell dispositions.
There will be two speakers for this event, Dr. Karen Hogg, an experimental officer over imaging and cytometry at the University of York, Bioscience Technology Facility, and Dr. Peter O’Toole, director of the Bioscience Technology Facility at the University of York and.
Hogg is an Experimental Officer: Imaging and Cytometry at the University of York, Bioscience Technology Facility. Her expertise is utilized for a wide range of diverse applications both within and external to the Department of Biology. She obtained her doctorate from the School of Biology, University of Leeds. In 2016, Hogg was awarded the Royal Microscopical Society medal for Flow Cytometry.
As the director of the Bioscience Technology Facility at the University of York O’Toole covers the broad technologies required for a multi-disciplined Department of Biology. He received his doctorate in the Cell Biophysics Laboratory at Essex and has been involved in many aspects of fluorescence imaging and cytometry. Hi current research is focused on both technology and method development of novel probes and imaging modalities.
LabRoots will host the webinar July 12, 2018, beginning at 8 a.m. PDT, noon EDT. To learn more about this event, discover the continuing education credit offered, or to register for free, click here.
