Size and Complexity Separation This demonstrates gating by size and complexity based on forward scatter and side scatter, respectively.
Negative Control No Stain No Stain This sample is a negative control. It has no conjugated stains and represents the overall background.
No Stain CD4:FITC Single Staining This sample has a single stain of CD4 labelled with FITC stain, giving a green color to those cells expressing CD4.
Single Staining CD8:PE No Stain This sample has a single stain of CD8 labelled with PE stain, giving an orange color to those cells expressing CD8.
Double Staining CD8:PE CD4:FITC This sample has a double stain of CD4:FITC and CD8:PE, giving a green and orange color to those cells expressing both CD4 and CD8.
