Description
BD™ FC beads are fluorescent beads that enable the software to determine spillover values (SOVs) for fluorescence compensation and calculate a fluorescence compensation matrix during setup of BD™ flow cytometers. The combination of BD™ CS&T beads and BD FC beads accurately sets the voltage and compensation for each of the channels of the instrument. BD FC beads can also be used to standardize multiple instruments.
Preparation And Storage
Store tubes at 2°C–8°C in the foil pouch. The tubes should not be frozen. Protect the tubes from exposure to light and humidity. The beads and dilution buffer are stable until the expiration date shown on the pouch and bottle labels when stored as directed. Do not use after the expiration date.
