Dear Flowers, I am a PhD student and doing flow cytometry on peripheral blood from healthy women. So far I have done quite a few samples and all of them are quite consistent in terms of results, for example CD3, CD4, CD8, CD14, CD66b expression. The attached FSC/SSC plot (FSC-SSC -1 file) looks very unusual to me as you can see most of the granulocytes are having low FSC and I am wondering if anyone have come across with this earlier and would appreciate any help/comments. First I thought that there might be some problem with the machine, so I did an experiment on my own blood (FSC-SSC -2 file) just to make sure that FACS machine is working fine and indeed I found the same reproducible result. I sincerely hope that someone here will be able to help me out in understanding what could be wrong here! Thank you all.
