Imaging flow cytometry methods for quantitative analysis of label-free crystalline silica particle interactions with immune cells

Exposure to respirable fractions of crystalline silica quartz dust particles is associated with silicosis, cancer and the development of autoimmune conditions. Early cellular interactions are not well understood, partly due to a lack of suitable technological methods. Improved techniques are needed...
