FCS Assistant is a utility program that is intended to aid analysis
of flow cytometric data, stored in the FCS1.0 or FCS2.0
file format.
It has a range of routines, some or all of which are
missing from commercial analysis applications:
- Calculation of the Ratio of two parameters
- Addition of a calculated time parameter
- Calculation and export of time-variant data for kinetic
analysis or quality control
- Removal of surplus parameters
- Editing of saved text
- Conversion of IBM format files to macintosh
- Conversion of FCS1.0 to FCS2.0
- Export of raw data (for dot plots and further manipulation)
- Calculation and export of histogram data
FCSPress is
a Macintosh program for analysing and editing Flow Cytometry Data. It lets you:
- Plot a variety of
high resolution graphs
- Edit and annotate your graphs
"on the page"
- RGB-Gate your data
- Generate a wide range of statistics
- Copy for pasting directly into
other programs, or save to disc as standard PICT files
- Calculate the ratio of two parameters
- eg for Indo-1 or Fluo3/Fura Red calcium studies.
- Scale data, or calculate the sum,
product or difference of two parameters.
- Add a calculated time parameter
for kinetic studies (eg pH or Calcium).
- Delete superfluous parameters.
- Combine many small files into
one large one.
- Compensate
data off-line - ideal for multi-beam instruments with no cross-beam compensation
- Convert older FCS1.0 files and
FCS2.0 files to a common FCS2.0 format
- Export your data as text for plotting
in spreadsheets etc
- Calculate averages,percent responders,
standard error etc for kinetic studies - plot selected data versus time
- Edit text in your file - correct
mis-labelling
