flowUtils: Gating-ML Support in Flow Cytometry
نویسنده
چکیده
Gating in flow cytometry is a highly important process for selecting populations of interests by defining the characteristics of particles for further data acquisition or analysis. GatingML represents a specification on how to form unambiguous XML-based gate definitions. Such a description of gates facilitates the interchange and validation of data and analysis among different software packages with the potential for significant increase of hardware and software interoperability. The flowUtils package supports reading of Gating-ML version 1.5, and both, reading and writing of Gating-ML 2.0. Gating-ML 2.0 is the latest version of Gating-ML as of October 2014.

متن کاملMondrian Processes for Flow Cytometry Analysis
Analysis of flow cytometry data is an essential tool for clinical diagnosis of hematological and immunological conditions. Current clinical workflows rely on a manual process called gating to classify cells into their canonical types. This dependence on human annotation limits the rate, reproducibility, and complexity of flow cytometry analysis. In this paper, we propose using Mondrian processe...
متن کاملFlow cytometric evaluation of circulating endothelial cells: a new protocol for identifying endothelial cells at several stages of differentiation.
Several factors may influence the analysis of endothelial cells (ECs) by flow cytometry: separation of mononuclear cell, washing and centrifugation steps, panel of monoclonal antibodies, and the lack of standardization of gating technique. Therefore, the reliable quantification of ECs remains a technical challenge. The purpose of this study is to define a new flow cytometric protocol to charact...
