Capability of spectral flow cytometry for resolving fluorochromes with highly overlapping spectra
3 Jul 2025This application note highlights the Agilent NovoCyte Opteon spectral flow cytometer’s ability to resolve fluorochromes with highly overlapping spectra using carefully designed multicolor panels. Its advanced spectral unmixing capabilities enable effective separation of similar fluorochromes, allowing for greater flexibility in fluorochrome selection and expanded biomarker profiling within a single panel.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays.

These influencing processes can then be predicted and altered, leading to the development of medication and disease treatments.
