FACS: Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting
To analyse the general system, fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) is used. FACS is an extended version of flow cytometry that enables separation between cells with different fluorescence characteristics. (Figure 1) This is particularly useful in the analysis of samples containing mixtures of biological particles.
