IPSIT / Plateforme de Cytométrie H.Moissan (CYM)

The flow cytometry platform (CYM) of the Unité Mixte de Service, Ingénierie et Plateformes au Service de l'Innovation Thérapeutique (UMS-IPSIT), located on the first floor of the Henri Moissan Research Building (HM1), regularly offers its services to academic research teams in the Paris-Saclay region, as well as to industrial companies. The platform's staff are on hand to help you carry out fundamental and preclinical research projects on experimental models, as well as clinical research protocols. Our staff are also at your service for the development of new techniques using flow cytometry. The platform's flow cytometry equipment allows for the phenotyping of cells by detecting membrane and intracellular molecules (biomarkers), but also for functional studies such as the detection of protein phosphorylation, cell proliferation, the quantification of excreted cytokines or chemokines, or the detection of RNA. The platform also offers high-throughput cell sorting (contact cytometry: marie-laure.aknin@universite-paris-saclay.fr). At the same time, we are now extending our range of services to include a new high-tech measuring device, the QuickPlex® SQ 120 (Meso Scale Discovery, MSD), for multiplex analysis of biomarkers by electrochemiluminescence (MSD contact: sophie.viel@universite-paris-saclay.fr). Our activities, which can be linked to those of other platforms, allow the identification of new biomarkers that may be therapeutic targets.
