Overview
Cytophotometry is a technique used to measure the fluorescence intensity of cells. It involves using a high-sensitivity light detector to detect a cell's fluorescent emission and then quantifying the intensity of the emission. This is an important tool used in research laboratories to study the structure and functions of cells, as well as to detect and quantify cell-surface markers. Cytophotometry also has clinical applications, such as for the detection of cancer and infectious diseases. The technique is non-invasive, cost-effective and can help in early diagnosis.
