Flow Cytometry Assay Development

From panel design to validation, give your assay a fit for purpose approach with regular conversation throughout your project

Panel Design

● Ab selection (clone) ● Fluorochrome selection

Feasibility

● With the same matrix as for the clinical trial ● Test the staining protocol instrument setup ● Compensation ● And more

Gating

● Identify the populations of interest ● Assess the need for controls (FMO or Isotype) ● Define gating sequence for final reporting

Validation

● Inter/Intra assay precision ● Inter-operator and inter-instrument ● Sample stability ● Additional parameters (e.g post stained stability, sensitivity (LLOQ))

Custom Flow Cytometry Assays

With a customized flow cytometry assay development and validation approach, Cerba Research utilizes the appropriate sample types for your project.

The Importance of Validation

All biomarkers must undergo advanced validation to ensure data is interpretable within multiple time points, within large patient cohorts, and tested at different locations around the world.

All the markers used during your study undergo advanced validation to guarantee the interpretation of data

Flow Cytometry Assay Specimens

Cerba Research is able to perform your flow cytometry assay with whole blood, bone marrow aspirate or PBMCs.

In this video, Cerba Research takes you on an in-depth tour of their CerbACT immuno-oncology center of excellence in Asia.
