Light-scattering polarization measurements as a new parameter in flow cytometry [PDF]
Polarization measurement of orthogonal light scattering is introduced as a new optical parameter in flow cytometry. \ud In the experimental setup, the electrical field of the incident laser beam is polarized in the direction of the sample flow.

Four-Parameter white blood cell differential counting based on light scattering measurements [PDF]
Measurement of the depolarized orthogonal light scattering in flow cytometry enables one to discriminate human eosinephilic granulocytes from neutrophilic granulocytes. We use this method to perform a four-parameter differential white blood cell analysis.

Normal chemotactic activity of granulocytes obtained by filtration leucapheresis [PDF]
The chemotactic activity of granulocytes obtained by the Terumo Filtration Leucapheresis System (F.L.) was examined by the method of Boyden's chamber. The number of cells migrating through the Millipore filter was expressed as the chemotactic activity ...

Granulocyte-activating mediators (GRAM) [PDF]
In the present study we investigated the capability of human epidermal cells to generate granulocyte-activating mediators (GRAM). It could be shown that human epidermal cells as well as an epidermoid carcinoma cell line (A431) produce an epidermal cell ...

Flow cytometric determination of circulating immune complexes with the indirect granulocyte phagocytosis test [PDF]
A method for the determination of circulating immune complexes (CIC) was adapted for flow cytometric analysis. Human granulocytes were used to phagocytose IgG-bearing CIC of serum from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients.
