Instrument Description:

Flow cytometers (FC or FCM) are automated instruments that quantitate properties of single cells, one cell at a time. They can measure cell size, cell granularity, the amounts of cell components such as total DNA, newly synthesized DNA, gene expression as the amount messenger RNA for a particular gene, amounts of specific surface receptors, amounts of intracellular proteins, or transient signalling events in living cells.

PI supplied instrument name: Flow Cytometer
Dataset-specific description

Enumeration was performed using a FACSCalibur flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson) using green fluorescence as an incident trigger, with a target range for sample event rates at 100-1000 particles s-1 to prevent incident coincidence.
