Flow cytometry is one of the most suitable techniques for analyzing and classifying different cell suspensions derived from blood or others compartments. The characterization of all different cellular subtypes is made with different antibodies that detect surface or intracytoplasmic antigens. Here we describe the technique to thoroughly characterize immune cells from tumor infiltrates and proceed to isolation using single-cell sorting.
