How to do compensation in flow cytometer with JC-10 stained cells?
Posted June 13, 2019
Answer
Flow Cytometer Compensation with JC-10
- Flow Cytometer Channels for JC-10: FITC (FL1) & PE (FL2)
- Samples needed for compensation:
- Unstained cells
- Control cells (Healthy cells stained with JC-10)
- Positive cells (FCCP treated cells stained with JC-10)
- Run unstained cells (cells with vehicle treated only) first, set up the PMT voltage if needed.
- Run Control cells, adjust compensation to put the cells on the upper left quadrant (FL2 - % FL1).
- Run Positive cells, adjust compensation to move the cells on the right lower quadrant (FL1 - % FL2).
- Save the compensation
- Run your real sample
