This video showcases a flow cytometric gating strategy utilizing a multi-color panel to analyze cell viability and specific fluorescent-conjugated anti-human antibody markers. This approach makes it possible to determine the percentage of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected cell populations accurately.

Protocol

1. Flow cytometry staining of Mtb-infected monocyte-derived cells NOTE: The following steps must be performed in a BSL-3 facility. The flow cytometry staining could be performed in a 96-well plate instead of tubes. Detach the Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mtb-infected cells (and uninfected controls) from the wells in the 6 well plate(s) by incubation with 1 mL of FACS buffer per well for at least 30 min at 37 °C and 5% CO2.</…
