BD FACSDiVa option
by BD Biosciences
This white paper by BD Biosciences describes BD FACSDiVa Options for the BD FACSVantage SE flow cytometer, which digitizes the amount of light created by particles passing through one or more laser beams. BD FACSDiVa option does this earlier and more directly than any other commercial flow cytometer. The white paper describes the hardware architecture, how the electronics digitize the data, the compensation methodology, and how the electronics process data during sorting with illustrative data. It also explains the new sorting capabilities added by BD FACSDiVa option to the BD FACSVantage SE flow cytometer, such as four-way sorting and flexibility in making sort decisions. The BD FACSDiVa option allows the user to define exactly how sort decisions should be made. Yield masks, purity masks and phase masks can be used to make an optimal tradeoff between yield, purity, counting accuracy and side stream quality.
