New Immunofluorescence-Based Services
CD BioSciences, a US-based biotechnology company focusing on the development of
imaging technology, has recently launched its new services based on
immunofluorescence technology to provide researchers with diverse analysis and
accurate results on fixed or fresh samples. These new services can be applied to the
detection of circulating autoantibodies/antigens in cells and cell membranes/
immune complexes in biopsy material/circulating immune cells.
Immunofluorescence is one of many techniques used in biomedical research and
diagnosis. It uses the sensitivity and selectivity of fluorescence to analyze biological
tissues. The basic reaction in immunology is the antigen-antibody reaction. When an
antigen-antibody reaction occurs, the high specificity of the reaction means that
once one factor is known, another factor can be identified. In the
immunofluorescence technique, an antibody (or antigen) is labeled with a
fluorochrome that does not interfere with the activity of the antigen and antibody,
binds to its counterpart, and shows a specific fluorescent reaction under a
fluorescence microscope. Immunofluorescence techniques can be used to detect
proteins and other biomolecules in cells and tissues.
Scientists can utilize immunofluorescence technology for a variety of laboratory tests
and observations, providing a new perspective on the samples being analyzed.
Researchers can also apply this technique to fixed or fresh samples to obtain multiple
analysis and accurate results. CD BioSciences now offers customers with customized
services based on immunofluorescence technology for scientific studies, including
detection techniques of Fluorescence Microscopy, Laser Scanning Confocal
Microscopy, and Flow Cytometry.
The basic function of a fluorescence microscope is to transfer excitation energy to a
fluorescent dye in the specimen, separate the weakly emitted fluorescence from the
excitation light, and deliver it to a detector to produce a contrast image. The
specificity and high sensitivity of Fluorescence Microscopy allow it to study cellular
and subcellular structures in biological tissues at high resolution. It provides
three-dimensional spatial information and temporal variation of spatial information
in living cells.
Confocal Microscopy is a well-established biomedical research tool that provides
enhanced light microscopic imaging of cells labeled with fluorescent dyes. Its main
application is the high-resolution analysis of subcellular components in three
dimensions. The main difference to conventional epifluorescence microscopy is the
imaging method. The former provides an image of the entire specimen, while
Confocal Microscopy focuses on a single spot of light and scans the specimen line by
line.
Flow cytometry is a technique used to measure the physical or chemical properties
of cells and other biological particles as they pass through a measuring device in a
single line. Measurement of immunofluorescence is a specific application of flow
cytometry. It is particularly useful for cell sorting based on the presence or absence
of fluorescent signals, and allows precise definition and quantification of cell
population heterogeneity.
