  • Title: Fluorescence response and sensitivity determination for ATC 3000 flow cytometer.
    Author: Gaucher JC, Grunwald D, Frelat G.
    Journal: Cytometry; 1988 Nov; 9(6):557-65. PubMed ID: 3145175.
    Abstract:
    The fluorescence emitted by labeled particles after interaction with exciting light is conditioned by laser beam geometry and by the mode of fluorescence collection and filtration. A laser elliptic focusing mode is described, and the fluorescence characteristics of the sample cell flow are calculated. Fluorescence collection and detection through optical filters were analyzed, and efficiency was calculated for the ATC 3000 flow cytometer (Odam-Bruker, Wissembourg, France). A mathematical model is proposed for calculation of the fluorescence signal and its fluctuations. The background noise for the ATC 3000 was quantified experimentally using fluorescent microspheres of a known number of bound equivalent fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) molecules. These experimental measurements were found to fit the theoretical predictions, thus validating the proposed model.
