METHOD FOR DETECTION OF FLUORESCENCE, PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF FLUORESCENT BEADS, AND FLUORESCENT BEADS

摘要

Two or more kinds of fluorescent beads containing at least two kinds of basic fluorochromes different in fluorescence intensity, fluorescence wavelength, and fluorescence relaxation time from each other, wherein a content ratio between the at least two kinds of basic fluorochromes and absolute amounts of contents of the basic fluorochromes are set so as to be different between different kinds of fluorescent beads. The fluorescent beads are used in a flow cytometer for fluorescence detection. This makes it possible to identify a greater variety of beads than before with high accuracy in a single measurement.
