Standards for cell line authentication and beyond

June 14, 2016
Author(s)
Jamie L. Almeida, Kenneth D. Cole, Anne L. Plant
Different genomic technologies have been applied to cell line authentication, but only one method (short tandem repeat profiling) has been the subject of a comprehensive standard (ASN-0002). Here we discuss the power of this document, and why standards

Quantifying CD4 receptor protein in two human CD4+ lymphocyte preparations for quantitative flow cytometry

December 11, 2014
Author(s)
Meiyao M. Wang, Martin Misakian, Hua-Jun He, Peter Bajcsy, Jeffrey M. Davis, Kenneth D. Cole, Illarion Turko, Lili Wang, Fatima Abbasi
For quantitative flow cytometry, a biological cell reference material with a known biomarker expression level is needed to transform a linear arbitrary fluorescence intensity scale obtained with fluorescent microspheres to an antibody bound per cell (ABC)

Mouse Cell Line Authentication

February 13, 2013
Author(s)
Jamie L. Almeida, Carolyn R. Steffen, Kenneth D. Cole
The scientific community has responded to the misidentification of human cell lines with validated methods to authenticate these cells; however, there are few assays available for nonhuman cell line identification. We have developed a multiplex polymerase

Breast Cancer Biomarker Measurements and Standards

January 24, 2013
Author(s)
Kenneth D. Cole, Lili Wang, Hua-Jun He
Cancer is a heterogeneous disease characterized by changes in the levels and activities of important cellular proteins, including oncogenes and tumor suppressors. Genetic mutations cause changes in protein activity and protein expression levels that result

Development of a Candidate Secondary Reference Procedure (immunoassay based measurement procedure of higher metrological order) for Cardiac Troponin I: I. Antibody Characterization and Preliminary Validation

November 1, 2010
Author(s)
James E. Noble, David M. Bunk, R. H. Christenson, Kenneth D. Cole, Hua-Jun He, Alexei Katrukha, Mauro Panteghini, Robert Porter, Heinz Schimmel, Jillian Tate, Lili Wang
The development of a reference measurement procedure to support the cardiac troponin I (cTnI) standardization initiative is described. The reference measurement procedure will be used to assign reference values to serum-based secondary standards. A

Building Plumbing System Decontamination - First Report on Recommendations

September 6, 2009
Author(s)
Stephen J. Treado, Mark A. Kedzierski, Stephanie S. Watson, Nicos Martys, Kenneth D. Cole
This report summarizes the measurement results and recommended procedures for responding to building plumbing system contamination incidents and restoring the water system to safe operation. The recommendations are based on analysis of the results of a

A mechanistically relevant cytotoxicity assay based on the detection of cellular GFP

August 1, 2009
Author(s)
Michael W. Halter, Jamie L. Almeida, Alessandro Tona, Kenneth D. Cole, Anne L. Plant, John T. Elliott
Cell-based assays for measuring ribosome inhibition by proteins such as the plant toxin ricin are important for characterizing decontamination strategies and developing detection technologies for field use. We report here an assay for ricin that provides a
