Dear Flowers,

    I have come across a term "mean fluorescence index" in several
recent papers.  This term is used to describe the total fluorescent
capacity of a population of cells and is derived from the percentage of
cells staining positive for a marker multiplied by the fluorescent
intensity of the population expressing the marker.  Does anybody have an
idea about the acceptiblity of this calculation to express flow data ?
