MFC could help refine the MDS diagnostic process. To become useful for clinical practice, the MFC analysis must be based on parameters with sufficient specificity and sensitivity, and data should be reproducible between different operators.

Biology TRAP-rc, Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification from Rare Cell Populations of Drosophila Embryos Benjamin Bertin1, Yoan Renaud1, Rajaguru Aradhya2, Krzysztof Jagla1, Guillaume Junion1 1University of Clermont-Ferrand, 2Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification (TRAP) is able to capture cell-type-specific translation of mRNA. Here we report the first TRAP protocol dedicated to isolation of mRNA in rare cell populations of Drosophila embryos.
