Quantitative assessment of apoptotic events using image and flow cytometry
19 Nov 2025Cell 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.

Research tools enable apoptosis detection, quantification, and analysis. Browse products for apoptosis research in our peer-reviewed product directory.Cell AnalysisThe analysis of cells allows researchers to understand the factors which contribute to cell health and function. These influencing processes can then be predicted and altered, leading to the development of medication and disease treatments.FluorescenceThe emission of fluorescence occurs when a photon of energy is supplied to a fluorescent chemical compound by an external source, causing it to become excited. Fluorescence can be detected and measured for different purposes using microplate readers, fluorescence microscopes, fluorescence scanners, and flow cytometers.
