I have not run this assay but I do not understand why you are applying
compensation between FL1 and FL2. The fluorescence of JC-1 shifts from red
to green depending on the concentration of the dye. I would look at the
ratio between red and green, without compensation and look for a shift
wwhen the mitochondrial membrane potential collapsed.

Can anyone else comment on this aspect of the assay?
