  2. CD4 Immunophenotyping for HIV Monitoring Flow Cytometry

  3. Introduction • Absolute CD4 T-lymphocyte counts are used to evaluate the immune status of patients with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). • CD4 antigen is the receptor for HIV. The absolute number of CD4 T lymphocytes is closely associated with HIV progression.

  4. Flow Cytometry • Laser based high speed electronic cell analyzer • Fluorescent conjugated monoclonal antibodies • Analyze surface (and cytoplasmic) cellular antigens. • Flow rates 500 –700 cells /second

  5. Flow Cytometry • What Can a Flow Cytometer Tell Us About a Cell? • Its relative size (Forward Scatter- FSC) • Its relative granularity or internal complexity (Side Scatter-SSC) • Its relative fluorescence intensity (FL1,FL2,FL3, and FL4)

  17. Optics • Excitation optics • Laser(s) • Lenses to shape and focus the laser beam • Collection optics • A collection lens to collect light emitted from the particle-laser beam interaction • A system of optical mirrors and filters to route specified wavelengths of the collected light to designated optical detectors.

  24. Fluidics and Optics Review • Created an illumination region with the excitation optics • Passed the cells precisely through the illumination region using hydrodynamic focusing • Routed the generated light signals to the specific detectors by collection optics

  25. Electronics • Converts optical signals to proportional electronic signals (voltage pulses) • Analyzes voltage pulse height, area, or width • Interfaces with the computer for data transfer

  48. Topics of Discussion • Testing Platforms • Single • Dual • Instrumentation • Reagents

  49. Testing Platforms • Single platform instrument • Single platform testing can be performed on flow cytometer using calibration beads. • Cost per test is relatively higher. • Dual platform testing relies on a Hematology Analyzer. • Hematology cost per test is relatively inexpensive. • Comparison of both platforms.
