Action:

These calculations apply to standard sorting where the instrument is set to trigger on light scatter. These calculations assume ideal conditions. In practice, there are internal constraints within some sort circuits that will cause additional aborts that may or may not be counted by the electronics. For High Speed Enrichment, everything changes based on signal/noise and other sample characteristics. Your milage may vary... always check your instruments efficiency...
