immunophenotyping of lymphocytes is very essential for evaluation of immune system. due  to  the  effect  of  environmental  factors  and  ethnical diversity on  immune  system, establishment of an internal normal range of lymphocyte subsets is a necessity for each population.  the  aim  of  this  study  was  to  determine  the  normal  range  of  t  and  b lymphocytes, and nk cells in normal i...

background: mature t/ nk-cell neoplasms are a rare group of disorders and their presentation as leukemia is even rarer. most of the previous studies have focused on mature b-cell lineage leukemias and there is a paucity of data on mature t/nk-cell lineage leukemias. we, therefore, planned this study to analyze their spectrum, frequency, morphology and immunophenotypic features. methods: all cas...

background: immunophenotypic characterization of the leukemic cells has been widely used as a tool for diagnosis, classification, stratification and prognosis of leukaemia. objective: to investigate the immunophenotypic subtype profiles of iranian patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) and its association to disease outcome. methods: in this study, a total of 60 iranian patients with ...

BACKGROUND At present, immunophenotyping of hematological malignancies represents one of the most relevant clinical applications of flow cytometry. In recent years, its use has extended from clinical research to diagnostic laboratories. The aim of this report is to critically review the type of information provided by the flow cytometric immunophenotyping of hematological malignancies and its c...

The significance of immunophenotyping is growing day by day. Itprovides basic information in regard to classification and prognosisof acute leukemia which helps the management of patients. Thisstudy was conducted to Identify CD markers in leukemic patientsadmitted to Tabriz, in northwestern Iran. Immunophenotyping of 60patients with acute leukemia was determined. Patients with acutemyelogenous ...

The identification of cell surface markers, defined as clusters of differentiation antigens (CD’s) could be used to classify and sub-classify leukemia. Although the same antigens are expressed on normal cells, the phenotype on malignant cells are aberrantly and frequently asynchronously expressed and may be present in combinations not observed in normal blood or bone marrow. Aberrant expression...

BACKGROUND Widespread use of flow cytometry for immunophenotyping in clinical veterinary medicine is limited by cost and requirement for considerable laboratory space, staff time, and expertise. The Guava EasyCyte Plus (Guava Technologies, Hayward, CA, US) is the first, personal, bench-top flow cytometer designed to address these limitations. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to adapt the i...
