Abstract
Systems for differentially detecting light from a sample in a flow stream (e.g., in a flow cytometer) across one or more dimensions are described. Light detection systems according to embodiments include a flow cell configured to propagate a sample in a flow stream, a light source configured to irradiate the sample in the flow cell and a detector system having an optical adjustment component and a detector that is configured to differentially detect light from the flow cell without a scatter bar. Systems according to certain embodiments are configured to differentially detect light by modulating one or more components of the optical adjustment component or the detector. Methods for differentially detecting light from a sample in a flow stream with a detector unit without a scatter bar are also described. Kits having two or more components for use in the subject systems are also provided.
