Abstract: A method for controlling one or more parameters of a flow cytometer type measurement system, is disclosed. The comprises the following steps - measuring a time in which a microsphere (10) travels from a first detection window of the flow cytometer type measurement system to a second detection window of the measurement system; and - altering an applied pressure of the measurement system such that the time is substantially constant.

Abstract: A system and method for processing sample data employing hardware, such as a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), to process the sample data in small pipelined steps. The processing includes a circular buffer where the read and write of data is synchronous, preventing buffer overrun or data loss. This pipeline processing approach allows increasing data acquisition channels or additional processing steps without limiting processing speed.

Abstract: Various methods for controlling one or more parameters of a flow cytometer type measurement system are provided. One embodiment includes monitoring parameter(s) of the measurement system during measurements of sample microspheres. The method also includes altering the parameter(s) in real tim e based on the monitoring. Another method includes monitoring a temperature proximate to the measurement system. One such method includes altering a bia s voltage of an avalanche photo diode in response to the temperature using empirically derived data. A different such method includes altering output signals of a photomultiplier tube in response to the temperature using a characteristic curve. Some methods include monitoring a temperature of a fluid, in which sample microspheres are disposed, that will flow through the flow cytometer type measurement system. This method also includes determinin g a velocity of the sample microspheres in the measurement system from a viscosity of the fluid at the temperature.
