Flow cytometry stem cell enumeration. A variation on a single platform flow cytometric method based on the ishage gating strategy. The advent and use of a cd34 monoclonal antibody enabled the detection of these cells by flow cytometry. In the present study we review and compare the major counting techniques of stem and progenitor cells. Robert sutherland hematopoietic stem cells.

Centers for disease control. Cytokine and chemokine profiling. Detection of minimal residual disease. Several flow cytometric studies have shown.
Welcome to this pearl of laboratory medicine on the enumeration of cd34 hematopoietic progenitor cells by flow cytometry slide 2. Hematopoietic progenitor cells or hpcs are used to reconstitute hematopoiesis following marrow ablative therapies. I am a development technologist for the human cellular therapy laboratory at mayo clinic. Furthermore cd34 cell enumeration is useful for monitoring the stem cell yield during graft manipulations such as immunomagnetic selections ex vivo expansion or genetic modifications of hscs.
The cd34 antigen is stage specific and identifies cells in the early stages of hematopoietic differentiation. Immunophenotyping of blood products. Flow cytometric enumeration of cd34 cells is commonly employed to assess the hematopoietic stem cell hsc numbers in peripheral blood cord blood and apheresis products used for peripheral blood stem cell pbsc transplantation. Flow cytometric enumeration of cd34 hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells hscs is widely used for evaluation of graft adequacy of peripheral blood and bone marrow stem cell grafts.
