Hi all, Thanks in advance for your knowledge. I have recently bought the turbo-sort option for my FACStarPlus (with SEM). It has yet to be installed so I'm trying to troubleshoot things before hand, if possible (a unique situation for me). I guess what I would like is any of your experiences you may have had when your TSO was added, good and bad. I'm not looking to rag on BD or anything. I would like to know if there are any helpful hints to get me going more smoothly once it is installed, and, hopefully, save me from re-inventing the wheel. Are there any conditions to look out for that could ruin my sort (especially for rare cell populations) before I get to the end and have an empty tube to present my customer? Also, I would like to know some of the things Cliff McArthur was asking recently about the FACSVantage. Namely, with the turbo-sort, what are the routine yields, recovery, rate limits, purity, and especially any tinkering to tweak the machine to go better.
