![FIGURE 1. Flow cytometry passes a stream of labeled cells in front of laser beams and an objective lens collects light emitted by the cells. In conventional systems, the laser wavelengths are matched to excite the cells’ labels, and the light collected by the objective passes through dichroic mirrors and filters to PMTs. In spectral systems, light from each of the lasers illuminates all of the labels, and the earliest of these systems featured dispersive optics that distributed fluorescence emission onto linear detector arrays.
