About This Grant
Summary. We request funds to purchase a new 6-laser (320nm, 355nm, 405nm, 488nm, 561nm, 637nm), SONY ID7000E spectral flow cytometer to alleviate excessive demand for existing multi-parameter flow cytometers and to add additional spectral capability to the Core. The requested instrument will support the research of 16 major users and 32 minor users holding 78 NIH grants, as well as additional projects supported by the Department of Defense, private industry, and foundations. Our users are agitating for an additional instrument because their students, postdocs and technical staff are having difficulties booking appointments on the current (over-subscribed) instruments. In addition, they realize that the new spectral instruments have important features (like compensation for autofluorescence, enhanced small particle detection, and detection of a wider array of fluorochromes and fluorescent proteins) that are not possible on our current flow cytometers. Thus, the requested instrument will help users perform their funded and future experiments that require high- dimensional antibody panels, including users who use the immunophenotyping service for clinical samples. To meet these needs, we are requesting funds to purchase a new state-of-the-art, 6-laser Sony ID7000E spectral flow cytometer. The requested instrument will be administered by the FCSC Core and will be incorporated into the Core's existing financial plan. The FCSC Core is part of the UAB Institutional Research Core Program (IRCP) and receives significant institutional support from the IRCP on a yearly basis. The FCSC Core also receives yearly support from the UAB Cancer Center, the UAB Center for AIDS Research (CFAR) and the UAB Immunology Institute. These entities will also contribute $50,000 towards the purchase of the requested instrument. Five highly experienced flow cytometry specialists in the FCSC Core, each trained to operate the ID7000E, will be available to train new users in instrument operation and to assist them with the development of multi-parameter antibody panels. Finally, the FCSC Core is located in the Shelby Biomedical Research Building, which houses the research laboratories of many of our major users and is within a short walking distance of our other users on campus. Thus, the requested ID7000E instrument will add urgently needed capability and allow us to provide state-of-the-art instruments and services to our users in a timely manner.
