Other assays

There are many ways of measuring cell function by flow cytometry these include:

  • Activation antigen expression
  • Antibody binding kinetic studies
  • Plasma membrane potential studies (see Oncosis)
  • Mitochondrial membrane potential (see Apoptosis)
  • Mitochondrial Transition Pore (MTP) opening
  • Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) detection (see Apoptosis)
  • Cell-cell interactions
  • Enzyme function
  • Changes in the proximity of molecules by fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET)
  • Phagocytosis of cells / beads
  • Changes in membrane permeability upon activation.
