Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical measuring instruments, in particular to an excitation light source system and a calibration method for a flow cytometer. Background technique [0002] Flow cytometry is an instrument that can quickly analyze the characteristics (such as size, refractive index, complexity of internal structure, etc.) of cells or some special particles (such as polystyrene microspheres). The sample containing cells is compressed and focused by the sheath fluid and enters the fluid pool to form a laminar flow. The cells are compressed on the sample streamline and pass through the laser spot one by one. Use the detector in front of the optical axis and at 90° to the optical axis. Direction test The scattered light generated by the cells passing through the laser spot and the specific fluorescence generated by the fluorescent dyes carried by the cells are used to test some characteristics of the cells. [0003] Flow cytometry r...
