NIH Image. Image can be used to measure area, mean, centroid, perimeter, etc. of user defined regions of interest. It also performs automated particle analysis and provides tools for measuring path lengths and angles. Spatial calibration is supported to p - [Read NIH Image for Mac]
This protocol focuses on the interactions between L-selectin expressed on neutrophils and PNAd coated onto the plastic surface. The main purpose of the flow chamber assay is to visualize and measure interactions between flowing cells expressing a given adhesion molecule on their surface, and their receptor, either directly coated on the flow chamber lower wall or expressed on a cell monolayer. - [Read Protocol for L-selectin-PNAd Interactions under Flow Conditions.]
In an attempt to accurately measure DNA content with simultaneous preservation of cell surface markers, we have utilized gentle ethanol treatment techniques, which permeablize cells with minimal loss of surface antigen expression and antibody-antigen association. For some cell types, the presence of apoptotic cells based on reduced DNA content can also be detected. One such technique employs the addition of ethanol to cells previously resuspended in high concentrations of fetal bovine serum... - [Read Simultaneous Analysis of DNA Content and Surface Immunophenotype Protocol]
Unlike spherical phage, such as T4 and λ, which have roughly equal weight ratios of protein to DNA, filamentous phage have about six times more protein than DNA; the protein therefore contributes substantially to the absorption spectrum.
