However‚ flow cytometry is also commonly used‚ as an application for basic research. Simply‚ flow cytometers are automated machines that determine properties of individual cells (e.g. cell size‚ cell granularity‚ and total DNA). Cytometers are similar to microscopes

greek words: cyto- cell‚ and metry - measurement. So cyto-metry is about making cell measurements. To elaborate‚ flow cytometry is a technique for analysing particles (cells in this case) which are suspended in a fluid stream by flowing the cells past an interrogation point. A light source is directed on to a hydrodynamically focused stream to create a zone for interrogation. As cells flow through this interrogation zone they scatter the light‚ at this point any fluorescent compounds that are inside

the functioning of the Circular Flow of Income. The Circular Flow of Income is a model that indicates how money moves throughout an economy.

What are the benefits and drawbacks of this program? One of the underlying causes of the difficulties that the JITD program was created to solve was the effects of inconsistent demand that came from Barilla’s distributors. The extreme demand variation strained Barillas manufacturing and logistics‚ and made very hard for Barilla to meet that
