The Lung Biology Center is home to a flow cytometry core facility purchased by a group of investigators at the San Francisco General Hospital Medical Center. While these investigators have priority access to the facility, other investigators are welcome to use the facility when time is available.
Hourly charges are extremely reasonable.
Users are expected to provide their own instrument operator. Operation of the equipment is straightforward, and on-site training is available. The facility is equipped with a Becton-Dickinson FACSort flow cytometer. This instrument can be used for both analytical cytometry and cell sorting. Data acquisition and analysis are performed using Macintosh computers and CellQuest software.
