Application
What is Flow Cytometry? The measurement of cell in flow stream which delivers the cells in single file past a point of measurement.
Flow cytometers are engineered with precise light pathway. Light is routed through three different types of filter.
Fluorescence and Fluorochromes
Fluorochromes Fluorochromes absorb energy (light) and their electrons go from a ground state to an exited state. The electrons return to ground state by emitting light of lower energy , therefore longer wavelength.
Example of Fluorochromes
The fluorescence intensity measured is proportional to the number to the fluorescent molecules bound to the cell.

Flow cytometry viability control
Fluorescence Minus One (FMO)
Compensation
Compensation FITC signal is leaking into the PE detector.

When there is an obvious positive and negative population it is easy to use a control (A) to set a marker to define positivity (B).
Control Negative sample (A) and test sample (B) and (C) shows that probably all cells are weakly positive.
Negative sample (A) and test sample (B) Negative sample (A) and test sample (B). The overlay (C) shows that some cells are negative and some are positive.
