CyTOF and spectral flow cytometry are widely used technologies for high-dimensional single cell profiling of immune cells. Both technologies enable multiparameter single-cell analysis, but they differ significantly in how data are generated, how quickly studies can be executed, and how flexible an assay can be tailored for a specific…

At KCAS Bio, we supported a therapeutic monoclonal antibody for advanced solid tumors from non-human primate (NHP) toxicology through first-in-human (FIH) dose escalation into phase 2 expansion. This project combined receptor occupancy assays (ROA) by flow cytometry for cell-surface binding on monocytes, immunophenotyping (IPT) for activation markers, and…

Evolving CAR Therapies and the Growing Need for Robust PK/PD Monitoring Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) based therapies are a growing and continuing focus in oncology and autoimmune therapeutic development. They utilize either self (autologous) or donor-derived (allogenic) T cells that are genetically engineered to target and kill cancerous or autoreactive…

Reliable immune profiling across global studies depends on methods that perform consistently, regardless of where they are run. We address this question in the white paper entitled “Cross-Site Validation of a 15-Color Spectral Cytometry Panel for Leukocyte Profiling,” documenting a global collaboration between KCAS Bio and its strategic partner,…
Posters & Papers
Discover in this white paper a global collaboration between KCAS Bio and its strategic partner, Crux Biolabs, to harmonize and validate a standardized 15-color spectral flow cytometry panel for pan-leukocyte profiling across multiple sites. If you have any questions about these services or any others offered by…

In episode 28 of “The Conversational Flow”, our hosts, Adam and Brian, discuss why standardization is essential for credible flow cytometry data at scale. They walk through the biggest sources of variability – reagents and lots, sample handling and shipping time, anticoagulants and processing choices (whole blood vs. PBMCs, fresh…

Why Cell Stimulation Matters in Flow Cytometry Many flow cytometry users are happy to start an experiment with a general protocol and a question about their specimen: Will my cells make more cytokines or express more markers after activation? In a healthy person, immune cells like B cells, T cells,…

This pre-holiday episode of “The Conversational Flow” dives into how scientific understanding evolves over time, using immunology as a case study to highlight how often researchers underestimate what they don’t yet know. Adam and Brian reflect on historical quotes from medicine and science that confidently declared fields “complete,” only to…
