Abstract: A system is described wherein a plurality of lasers are used to irradiate particles in a flow cytometer's flow stream. In certain embodiments, a light source having a plurality of lasers configured for irradiation of a flow stream are disclosed where discrete intervals of irradiation by one or more discretely activated lasers are triggered by irradiation of one or more particles in the flow stream with one or more continuously on lasers.

Abstract: A measurement system includes a system for causing relative motion between a sample and an irradiation spot. The sample includes fluorescent markers having respective wavelengths. A gating system provides a gating signal based at least in part on resultant light substantially at an irradiation wavelength. A detection system detects fluorescent light from the irradiated markers and provides detection signals representing the fluorescent light detected concurrently with a gate-open signal. In some examples, the detection system detects fluorescent light at multiple wavelengths and provides respective detection signals. A spectral discriminator arranged optically between the sample and the detection system receives the fluorescent light from the sample and provides respective fluorescent light at the wavelengths to the detection system. A flow cytometer can spectrally disperse resultant fluorescent light and measure the wavelengths separately. Light from a sample disposed over a reflective phase grating can be dispersed, measured, and gated.
