Compensation (Full video)
IN THIS VIDEO:
Explore how FCS Express reads acquisition-derived compensation from any modern flow cytometer. You may also edit or create compensation matrices within the software. During the webinar you will learn how to use the auto-compensation tools of FCS Express, how to adjust compensation manually as needed, and how to ensure the intended compensation matrix or matrices are applied to your plots in a during the Batch Process. We will also show you new compensation-related features introduced with FCS Express 7, such as NxN plots, Spillover Spreading Matrix, Cross Staining Index, and the new "real time" updating compensation introduced in 7.08.0018.
LEARN HOW TO:
- Use the Auto-Compensation tools of FCS Express
- Adjust Compensation Manually
- Apply Compensation to Data

Mixed Media Compensation
IN THIS VIDEO:
Learn how to perform Compensation with mixed media data sets. FCS Express works under the default assumption that your compensation control files are of a single media type, but you can easily create a matrix in FCS Express that uses cells and beads for controls. Data Specific Gates in FCS Express make it easy to create gates for beads and cells as needed.
LEARN HOW TO:
- Add a New Compensation
- Create a Data Specific Gate for Additional Control
- Import a Compensation Matrix

Spectral Unmixing (Short video)
IN THIS VIDEO:
Make the most of Spectral flow cytometry and it's ability to increase the number or parameters per single cell or particle than traditional flow cytometry. In contrast to conventional flow cytometers, spectral flow analyzers and sorters substitute mirrors, optical filters, and photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) with a spectrograph and multichannel detector to use fluorescence or Raman spectroscopy. This video will quickly show you how to unmix your spectral flow cytometry data in FCS Express.
LEARN HOW TO:
- Add Unmixing Controls
- Select a Sample Type for a Control
- Export an Unmixing Matrix

Spectral Unmixing - (Full video)
IN THIS VIDEO:
In this webinar the team at De Novo Software will guide you through the process of unmixing using the new Spectral Unmixing wizard in FCS Express 7. We will teach you how unmix your spectral data sets from single stained controls, apply the unmixing to sample data files, and proceed to generate high quality and publication ready results!
LEARN HOW TO:
- Explore 3 Different Unmixing Examples
- Apply Unmixing to Plots
- Save an Unmixing and Utilize in New Layout

Virtual Spectral Unmixing
IN THIS VIDEO:
Learn how FCS Express allows you to visualize, unmix and treat any over-determined data files as a "Virtual Spectral" data file via the addition of special keywords to the data set. In this webinar, we cover the basics of creating a virtual spectral data file, how to perform spectral unmixing from these data types, and how to gather results from your virtual spectral data sets.
LEARN HOW TO:
- Create a Virtual Spectral Data File
- Perform Spectral Unmixing from Virtual Spectral Data File
- Get results from Virtual Spectral Data Sets
