Flow Cytometry Troubleshooting Guide: How to Improve Flow Cytometry Analysis
Flow cytometry characterizes and/or sorts heterogeneous suspended cell populations based on physical and fluorescence characteristics. For optimum results and data analysis, a basic understanding of fluorochromes and their characteristics, spectral overlap and spillover, compensation and spread, as well as flow cytometer variables that can affect the sensitivity of the measurements is necessary.
The following flow cytometry troubleshooting guide describes possible causes and solutions for most common problems encountered during flow cytometry experiments. Click on the common problems below for tips on how to improve your flow cytometry analysis, organized in easy-to-use tables.
- Acquisition Rate Decreases Dramatically
- A Loss or Lack of Signal
- High Background and/or Non-Specific Staining of Cells
- Variability In Results From Day to Day
- High Fluorescent Intensity
- Suboptimal Cell Scatter Properties
- Antibody Worked In Other Applications But Not In Flow Cytometry
