You have to adjust _______________________in a flow cytometer to make sure emission of fluorescence from a single fluorophore does not bleed into multiple channels
What is Compensation.......... (Extra info: Within a flow cytometer, the appropriate ranges of excitation and emission wavelengths are selected by bandpass filters. However, when emission spectra overlap, fluorescence from more than one fluorochrome may be detected. To correct for this spectral overlap, a process of fluorescence compensation is used. This ensures that the fluorescence detected in a particular detector derives is solely from the fluorochrome that is being measured.)
