Isolation, Detection, and Analysis: Comprehensive Strategies for Exosome and Extracellular Vesicle Research with Automation Enablement

This 49-minute webinar explores comprehensive strategies for exosome and extracellular vesicle research with automation enablement, presented by experts Dr. Ketil Pedersen and Susan O'Meara, M.S. from Thermo Fisher Scientific. Learn about liquid biopsy as a noninvasive method for analyzing circulating biomarkers including exosomes (30-150 nm extracellular vesicles) that play crucial roles in intercellular communication. Discover workflow capabilities from exosome enrichment to separation, detection and analysis using various techniques that offer flexibility in application, sample throughput, and target size. The presentation covers magnetic bead isolation methods capable of automation deployment, cellular sorting advancements optimized with fluorescent color gating for EVs by flow cytometry or transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging, and how automation of small particle sorting can enhance cancer therapeutic research. Key learning objectives include extracellular vesicle enrichment techniques with magnetic beads, workflow automation capabilities from isolation to analysis, and advanced sorting technologies with optimized parameters for this vital research area.
