Glossary Cell Sorting

laboratory technique to separate cells by specific characteristics

Cell sorting is a laboratory technique used to separate cells based on specific characteristics, such as size, shape, or protein expression. This process often employs technologies like flow cytometry, where cells are tagged with fluorescent markers and passed through a laser beam, allowing researchers to isolate and study different cell types for various applications, including medical research and treatment development.
