A method and a flow cytometer system in which a light path is aligned to optimally direct light from a light source to a flow cell of a flow cytometer instrument are provided. The flow cytometer may include an orientable mirror disposed in the light path between the light source and the flow cell. By changing an orientation of the mirror through a sequence of different orientations, an optimal orientation of the mirror may be determined, and the mirror may be oriented accordingly before proceeding to conduct a flow cytometry investigation.

Automated alignment of optics within a flow cytometer

A flow cytometer system includes a flow cytometer, an autosampler and a system integration structure to accommodate interconnection and interface of the flow cytometer and autosampler for operation together and providing for convenient interface with equipment for handling process liquids.

A flow cytometer may include a vibration isolation structure on which a flow cytometer optical system assembly is supported when the flow cytometer is in an operational configuration. A shear protection structure may be positioned to protect a vibration isolation structure from damage during handling and shipping. A flow cytometer optical system assembly may include optical component units fixed in position on a support platform with adjustability of one or more optical features in the optical component units. A light-tight dichroic mirror unit may include a rotatably mounted dichroic mirror with a locking mechanism to permit re-setting angular positioning of a dichroic mirror.
