Abstract
A system for a flow cytometer that collects data for a sample prepared with a plurality of fluorochromes that includes a fixed gain detection system that collects data for a plurality of fluorescence channels, fluorochrome compensation factors for a plurality of fluorochromes types, and a computer system that has an interface that gathers fluorochrome information of the sample and an analysis program that compensates for spectral spillover in the collected data. The fixed gain detection system preferably has a wide dynamic range. A fluorochrome compensation factor preferably remains constant for a fixed gain detection system. The analysis program preferably uses the fluorochrome compensation factors to compensate for spectral spillover.
