Quantitative assessment of apoptotic events using image and flow cytometry

ChemoMetec
19 Nov 2025

Cell death by apoptosis is a complex, tightly regulated process in which a cell orchestrates its own destruction in response to a specific internal or external stimuli. Dysregulation of apoptosis can lead to various physical disorders such as cancer and autoimmunity.

In this scientific poster, ChemoMetec demonstrates how the NucleoCounter® NC-3000™ image cytometer can be used to quantify different events in the apoptosis process.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays.
