We have also observed 1-5% decreases in the mean intensity of fluorescent microspheres ("DNA-check" beads from Coulter) on our EPICS XL over periods of 3-4 hours.

We see a consistant 5-7% decrease in the mean intensity of fluorescent microspheres measured by our EPICS XL over a period of 3 hours from morning start up. Ambient room temperature varies less than 2 degrees. Coulter is not sure if this exceeds any of their specifications for performance. My question is if this is a systemic problem. Do any other XL users see similar behavior?
