Flashcard 700: What indicates a positive dihydrorhodamine flow cytometry test for CGD?\n_____
Answer: Minimal green fluorescence (lack of rhodamine)
Extra: Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is caused by a deficiency in NADPH oxidase. This leads to an inability to generate superoxide, which is required to oxidize dihydrorhodamine 123 into fluorescent rhodamine 123. Thus, a lack of fluorescence is diagnostic.
