Instrument Comparison: Some Instruments are More Equal than Others

Season 1 · Episode 10

Sunday, July 14, 2024 • Duration 55:01

When it comes to flow cytometry instrumentation, there are a number of things that can be different. You may have different types of lasers, you might have a different path for the laser to follow to get to the detector, you can have different actual detectors, different filters in front of those detectors, not to mention the varying sensitivities or levels of power for any of these items. In episode #10 of "The Conversational Flow", Brian and Adam discuss all of these while comparing them and deciding which elements matter the most for your project.

Why Does Flow Cytometry Need Its Own Podcast?

Friday, October 13, 2023 • Duration 40:51

Flow cytometry is a technique used to detect and measure physical and physiological characteristics of a population of cells or particles. Tens of thousands of cells can be quickly examined and the data gathered is processed by a computer. Uses of flow cytometry can included determination of Cellular characteristics and function, biomarker detection, proliferation, toxicology and diagnosis of health disorders. For our inaugural episode of "The Conversational Flow", Adam and Brian discuss how Flow Cytometry has become so important to the industry and why it warrants getting its very own podcast.

Batch Effects, Controls, and Considerations for Longitudinal Studies

Season 1 · Episode 9

Friday, June 14, 2024 • Duration 01:04:56

Let’s face it - nobody likes batch effects (unless it has to do with cookies, but that’s for another podcast). In episode #9 of “The Conversational Flow”, Brian and Adam talk about Batch Effects which is when you're having changes in the study that are not necessarily related to the scientific variables of the study – and what that might mean you will need to do next. Batch Effects can cause a number of headaches for anyone without experience with them… luckily both of our hosts have a number of years in the lab, and they have seen a thing or two. They put this experience to work during this most recent episode to help you with these issues.

Receptor Occupancy Testing in Clinical Trials

Season 1 · Episode 8

Tuesday, May 14, 2024 • Duration 45:36

For episode #8 of “The Conversational Flow” podcast, Brian and Adam spend the time discussing Receptor Occupancy Testing in Clinical Trials. Receptor occupancy (RO) assays are important in clinical trials because they provide valuable information about a drug’s binding characteristics and mechanism of action. Our hosts begin by outlining the general need for accurate RO calculation (per time point, per subject, etc), then they move on to pre-analytical risks (collection, shipment, transit, receipt, etc) and more specifics like staining and preparation process, acquisition and data analysis, harmonization between multiple testing facilities, and interpreting RO data.

The Current State of Receptor Occupancy Validation

Season 1 · Episode 7

Monday, April 15, 2024 • Duration 01:00:34

For episode #7 of “The Conversational Flow”, Brian and Adam invite David Ambrose to join them as they continue their conversation about Receptor Occupancy assays. There are so many unique considerations around an RO assay and with any flow cytometry assay, the precision of that assay is important. Our hosts discuss the biggest differentiators when you're starting to think about an RO assay and how to optimize the development of those assays and why it is so incredibly important to have a full understanding of the instrumentation being used in order to get the process right.

What Makes Spectral Flow so Significant?

Season 1 · Episode 4

Sunday, January 14, 2024 • Duration 46:15

For the 4th episode of “The Conversational Flow” podcast, Brian and Adam discuss spectral flow; something really near and dear to their hearts. This is a topic both of our hosts have been genuinely interested in since they really became aware of it, at which time they immediately began pushing to bring the instrumentation to KCAS. While they have hinted at it and talked about this topic off and on, even in just the few episodes of the podcast already, they take a significantly deeper dive in this episode and showcase why spectral flow is at the forefront of technology for Flow Cytometry, and why it plays such an important role at KCAS.

How do You Validate a Flow Cytometry Assay?

Season 1 · Episode 3

Thursday, December 14, 2023 • Duration 43:47

There are a number of different guidances for Flow Cytometric Assay Validation, so for episode #3 of “The Conversational Flow” podcast, Brian and Adam go into great detail on how we perform validations at KCAS, and under what context we do so – and why. In this episode, the guys break down the different types of validation and the various levels of qualification related to flow validation, as well as the differences between validation and qualification – which, in and of itself has has gone through an evolution as a concept – and discuss how this all influences how to validate a flow cytometry assay.
