Greetings from blizzard country.

I am ignorant to the ways of flow cytometry, but I think you may be able
to help me. I am working with a model of Inflammatory Bowel Disease and
would like to evaluate circulating neutrophils, specifically quantify them
according to their activation state. Is there any way to determine the
number (percentage) of cells that are primed, activated, etc. from a blood
sample? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
