Below are links to two different examples using
a reference standard to create a calibrated parameter. The first
uses an 8-bead set, and shows you how FlowJo creates different kinds
of regressions depending on what options you choose. The second
uses CD4 expression as a reference standard, and then shows you
how graphs and statistics are computed based on the calibrated parameter.
In both cases, you should first gate on the original collected
sample to "clean" it up. In the case of beads, you should
gate on "singlets" based on Forward and Side scatter (as
shown below); this aids FlowJo in identifying the peak positions
corresponding to each bead. Select the gated subpopulation in the
Workspace window, and then choose "Calibrate..." under
the Workspace menu.
For the CD4 calibration, you would gate on lymphocytes before selecting
the lymphocyte gate as a calibration. Then select the appropriate
menu item.
See the bead
calibration example, or the CD4
calibration example.
