Methods and reagents for performing analyses of subpopulations of particles.

摘要

Methods for distinguishing multiple subpopulations of particles in a single sample based upon quantitative differences in the fluoroescence intensity attributable to one or two fluorochromes with which the particles are labelled. The method is used with flow cytometric particle counting techniques to count and sort synthetic particles and biological particles such as the formed elements of blood and other tissue cells. Also disclosed are reagents containing fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies used in the methods.
