Flow Cytometry
Focus
The central flow cytometry facility (Flow Core Unit, FCU) operates several devices for cell analysis (e.g.: BD LSRFortessa, BD FACSCanto II, Cytek Aurora and Bio-Rad BioPlex200) and two cell sorters (BD FACSAria I and FACSAria Fusion).
The service unit is headed by Dr. Stefan Stein, who is also the contact person for general questions on flow cytometry and for the development and adaptation of new measurement and sorting approaches.
Annette Klemke is the operator of the Flow Core Unit and carries out high-speed cell sorting for GSH internal and external research groups. She is responsible for the proper condition of all flow cytometers at the institute. In her absence, Thorsten Geyer and Felix Kienzle act as additional operators at the cell sorter.
Request + Contact
The sorting unit is primarily available to the research units of the Georg-Speyer-Haus. However, external research groups who wish to perform FACS measurements or cell sorting at the GSH can apply at any time. Send your inquiry by email to flow[at]georg-speyer-haus.de
