Abstract: Systems and methods for flow cytometry. The methods comprise: labeling cells of a sample with Raman tags; causing the sample to flow through a microfluidic channel of a flow cytometer through which a laser beam passes; detecting Raman signals emitted from the Raman tags while being illuminated by the laser beam; and determining characteristics of the cells based on the detected Raman signals.

Abstract: Provided are aqueous-liquid absorbent resin particles in which the aqueous-liquid absorbent resin is not blocked regardless of working environment or weather condition, and that have excellent powder feedability and absorption performance under a load. The present invention pertains to aqueous-liquid absorbent resin articles (P) obtained by a production method comprising at least two steps of surface crosslinking step for crosslinking, by using a surface crosslinking agent (c), the surfaces of resin particles (B) containing a crosslinked polymer (A) of which the essential constitutional unit is formed of a water-soluble vinyl monomer (a1), and/or a vinyl monomer (a2) that becomes a water-soluble vinyl monomer (a1) through hydrolysis, and a crosslinking agent (b). The surface crosslinking agent (c) used is different between the first surface crosslinking step and the second crosslinking step.
