Assays

Flow cytometry is a laser-based, high-throughput single-cell analysis technique used to simultaneously measure multiple physical and fluorescent characteristics of cells or particles in suspension. This assay quantifies cell populations based on parameters such as cell size (forward scatter), granularity (side scatter), and fluorescence intensity of labeled surface or intracellular markers, enabling immunophenotyping, cell cycle analysis, viability assessment, and functional studies. Samples are ...

This assay captures administrative and clinical metadata associated with patient study visits, serving as a structured data collection framework rather than a biological measurement assay. It records visit-level contextual information such as visit dates, timepoints, subject identifiers, clinical site details, and protocol-relevant annotations that are essential for linking experimental samples and assay results to their proper clinical context. This metadata layer ensures traceability and data ...

A mouse challenge assay introduces a defined treatment, infection, or condition to experimental mice. It assesses physiological, immunological, or pathological responses to controlled exposures. Input: Experimental mouse model Output: Treated or exposed mouse sample for downstream analysis.

Cell sorting is a flow cytometry-based assay used to physically separate heterogeneous cell populations into distinct subpopulations based on specific cell surface or intracellular markers, enabling downstream functional, molecular, or phenotypic analyses. Cells are labeled with fluorescently conjugated antibodies or dyes, interrogated by laser excitation, and individually sorted into collection vessels using electrostatic deflection or microfluidic mechanisms according to predefined gating ...

This assay captures and standardizes the metadata associated with cell extraction procedures, documenting key experimental parameters such as cell type, passage number, extraction method, reagents used, and processing conditions applied during the preparation of cellular material for downstream analyses. It serves as a critical data governance step to ensure traceability, reproducibility, and quality control across experiments by recording provenance information for extracted cell samples. The ...

This assay captures metadata associated with tissue collection procedures, documenting critical provenance and contextual information for biological specimens obtained from study subjects. It records standardized parameters such as tissue type, anatomical source, collection method, preservation conditions, and relevant donor or sample identifiers to ensure traceability and reproducibility across downstream experimental workflows. This metadata serves as a foundational record linking collected ...
