However, the number of markers that can be included in a flow cytometry panel is limited by the number of fluorophores with distinguishable emission spectra. Spectral flow cytometry, an evolved ...

Flow cytometry is the current gold standard for identifying cell types within a mixed population. It identifies cells by their unique combinations of markers, which are tagged with antibodies bound to ...

However, such experiments were problematic for flow cytometry as there weren’t enough different fluorophores available to identify multiple cell phenotypes at the time. Researchers turned their ...
