The Best Way To Perform A SPICE Analysis With FlowJo

Flow cytometry is an ever-evolving field, and one element that's becoming exceptionally more complex is the collection of data. The good old days where just a couple colors were plenty enough to perform a valid experiment are long past. Now even the newest flow cytometrists use at least five colors, often more!

The Right Way To Execute A SPICE Analysis With FlowJo

Naturally, the greater the test the more data there are to read, the more time it will take, and the more headaches you need to deal with!

So what can we do about this? If, like the majority of flow cytometrists, you’re using the flow cytometry analysis program FlowJo, you can incorporate the SPICE model into your experiments to make it much easier to read your data!

What is SPICE? It means Simplified Presentation of Incredible Complex Evaluations, and it’s vital for your flow cytometry data analysis! (< take a look at the full post here)

By the way, here are 10 FlowJo X tricks which will make flow cytometry analysis much less difficult!
