System and Method for Label Selection

Abstract:

Methods and systems for performing a flow cytometry experiment can include evaluating one or more assignments of labels to a plurality of markers. Evaluating assignments of labels can include evaluating condition numbers for at least one spillover matrix. The method can further include selecting labels based at least in part on the evaluation of condition numbers. Methods and systems for performing a flow cytometry experiment can also include inputting data regarding markers, cell populations, labels, and cytometer configuration for a flow cytometry experiment, assigning labels to at least some of the markers, and running the flow cytometry experiment.
