We introduce a new design for the optical cuvette and a new optical lay-out for the Scanning Flow Cytometer (SFC) that permits measurement of the angular dependency of the scattered light from individual moving particles. The improved optical scheme of the SFC allows measurement of the angular scatt

β¦ Synopsis
A noncommercial flow cytometry system was set up in a laboratory with no engineering staff attached. The system is based upon a conventional fluorescence microscope and a new flow principle reported by H. Steen and T. Lindmo (Science 204:403, 1979). A few modifications and additions have been introduced. The instrument has proven to be a high-resolution system, easy to adjust and control, giving coefficients of variation of cellular DNA down to 0.8% and of fluorescent polyethylene microspheres down to 0.9%.

## Abstract A microscopeβbased flow cytometer, which is based on a new flow system, has been extended to include light scatter detection, dual parameter fluorescence analysis, and a device which compensates for variations in excitation light intensity. A dichroic mirror splits the fluorescence into
## Abstract We have established an interface between our flow cytometer's computer and the personal computer (PC) which supports our patient database system. The PC has been equipped with a commercially available IEEEβ488 bus interface board which is connected to the interface bus of the cytometer'
