Analysis of the hematopoietic stem cell compartment. (a), (b), and (c) BFU-E, CFU-GEMM, and CFU-GM colonies, respectively, analyzed in the colony assay (original magnification: ×200). (d) Flow cytometry (FACS) and the colony assay (CFU) showed good correlation in the determination of HSC frequencies. Scale bar: 100 μm.
