Abstrakt: | Signal interference or overlap in mass cytometry is minimal compared to flow cytometry but must still be considered for optimal panel design and assay sensitivity. Here we describe a procedure for evaluating signal interference dynamics in the context of a 25-parameter core immunophenotyping panel. Specifically, a mass-minus-many (MMM) approach was used to assess background signals in "empty" or "blank" channels intended for further customization. Through this approach cell type-specific variability in signal background is revealed. Further panel customization can thus be performed with an understanding of cell type and channel-specific background levels to enable rational panel design and the objective delineation of gating thresholds during analysis. |
