Sort purity

Hi folks.
Can anyone point me to a discussion of ways to estimate the purity of a sorted population
of cells. This is clearly easy when you are sorting very bright cells from negatives
but more problematic when sorting cells from a "shoulder". I remember seeing a nice
discussion on this subject but cannot remember where. I've been sorting some very
weakly positive cells from a population, these cells post sort overlap the negative
cells quite a bit. My customer seems unhappy about  that.
Thanks
