Cellquest Software [upd] [ 1000+ COMPLETE ]

If you are setting up a legacy lab, keep a dedicated Windows XP machine with a serial-to-USB adapter. For analysis, export your .FCS files to FlowJo or R (using flowCore package). But for straightforward, low-throughput experiments, CellQuest still gets the job done. Need further help? Search for “CellQuest Reference Manual” (PDF available from BD’s archive) or consult flow cytometry forums like Purdue Cytometry List.

CellQuest is a software application developed by Becton Dickinson (BD Biosciences) for the acquisition, analysis, and display of flow cytometry data. For nearly two decades, it was the industry-standard program for BD FACScan, FACSort, FACSCalibur, and FACSCanto instruments. cellquest software
