General Hazard Avoidance Safety of the CyAn ADP operator is of primary concern. It is important that all operators familiarize themselves with this safety section to avoid all potential hazards associated with the use of the CyAn ADP. Any questions or concerns regarding safety of the instrument should be directed to Dako Colorado immediately. 1. PINCHING: The lid of the CyAn ADP is on hinges that should keep the lid in the UP position when open. It is recommended by Dako that the lid NOT be left open for extended periods of time OR be opened and closed repeatedly to avoid excessive wear on the hinges which may, over time, cause the lid to fall unexpectedly, potentially falling on an operator s hands or fingers, causing injury. Please use caution when the lid is open and do not leave unattended. If the lid of the CyAn ADP becomes loose and will not stay up on its own, please contact Customer Care so it can be repaired. 2. TRIPPING: The Sheath Management System (SMS) is attached to the CyAn ADP head unit by an 8 foot (2.4 meters)long umbilical cord. It is suggested that the SMS cart be placed underneath a laboratory bench to keep it out of the way of foot traffic through the laboratory. If this is not possible, it is recommended that the SMS be placed where it will minimize the likelihood of a tripping hazard. It is suggested that the umbilical cord be run behind the laboratory bench, if possible, to keep the cord from dangling and potentially creating a tripping hazard as well. If the cord must be run down in front of the laboratory bench to the SMS, please use caution when operating or walking past the CyAn ADP to avoid tripping on the umbilical cord. It is suggested that hazard tape be placed on these items to make them highly visible to minimize the possible tripping hazard in cases where laboratory set up is not ideal. If a person trips on either the umbilical cord or SMS cart of the CyAn ADP, please contact Customer Care. 3. CHEMICAL: PPE should be worn at all times when using any part of the CyAn ADP to ensure protection from all potential hazards. Use caution when handling disinfectant products used in the waste tank. It is important that the appropriate type and amount of disinfectant is used in the waste tank to ensure effective inactivation of biologics. Please see Appendix A for a list of approved cleaners and disinfectants. DO NOT use any cleaner or disinfectant that is NOT on this list, as this may cause damage to the system and void your warranty. Please contact Customer Care with any questions regarding chemical usage on your CyAn ADP. 4. ERGONOMICS Computer Use: It is suggested by Dako that the safety officer or designated individual evaluate the operator(s) workstation soon after the installation of the CyAn ADP to ensure proper ergonomic guidelines are followed to minimize any discomfort that may arise from the use of CyAn ADP peripheral equipment. If any operator experiences any physical discomfort when using the CyAn ADP, please contact Dako Customer Care. A regular keyboard and mouse are included with the computer. If desired, an ergonomic keyboard or trackball mouse may be changed out (at the institution s expense) on the computer supplied with the CyAn. If problems arise after installation of alternative peripheral equipment, please contact Customer Care immediately. 5. ERGONOMICS - Lifting: The sheath and waste tank containers used on the SMS cart have a maximum capacity of 20L. When full, either container will weigh approximately 19kg (42 pounds). Use caution when lifting full containers, whether it be removing or replacing it on the cart, to avoid back strain or injury. Proper lifting techniques must always be used when handling heavy items to avoid back injury. If an operator is unable to comfortably lift a container, it is recommended to seek assistance with moving the container to the desired position. It is also suggested that the waste tank be emptied when half full so that it will be 10 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
easier to handle. If any operator experiences any physical discomfort when handling the sheath or waste containers on the SMS cart, please contact Dako Customer Care. 6. SKIN ABRASION: The sample probe is constructed of stainless steel and the end of the probe is slightly squared off. Accidental direct contact with the end of the probe and the skin could cause an abrasion or cut. Use caution when loading and unloading samples on the probe. PPE should be worn at all times when using any part of the CyAn ADP. Samples of any kind should never be used on the CyAn without gloves being worn. If any injury related to the sample probe occurs, contact Dako Customer Care immediately. Biohazard Avoidance Safety of the CyAn ADP operator is of primary concern. It is important that all operators familiarize themselves with this safety section to avoid all potential biohazards associated with the use of the CyAn ADP. Any questions or concerns regarding biohazard safety and the CyAn ADP should be directed to Dako Customer Care immediately. 1. WASTE TANK: The reusable waste tank is located on the right side of the SMS cart and is labeled with a large black and orange biohazard symbol on the front. Emptying waste fluid generated from the CyAn ADP could be a daily occurrence for some operators. It is expected that all operators have undergone proper blood borne pathogens training provided by the institution of use, or similar authority, prior to using the CyAn. It is pertinent that the appropriate type and quantity of disinfectant is placed in the waste tank to ensure effective inactivation of the biologics in use when the tank is full. Please see Appendix A for a list of approved cleaners and disinfectants for use with the CyAn ADP. Please use caution when emptying the waste tank to avoid splashing of the waste fluid. PPE should be worn at all times when using any part of the CyAn ADP, including emptying the waste tank. Please contact Dako Customer Care if there are any questions or concerns about handling waste fluid generated by the CyAn ADP. 2. SAMPLE WASTE: Exposure to sample waste fluid from clogs in the waste line may occur; however, this is rare. If a clog occurs, exposure to biohazards is likely. PPE should be worn at all times when using the CyAn ADP to protect the operator from unexpected hazards. If exposure to biohazardous material occurs due to a fault of the CyAn ADP, Dako Customer Care should be contacted immediately. 3. SAMPLES: Sample handling is a normal part of the use of the CyAn ADP. It is expected that all operators have undergone proper bloodborne pathogens training provided by the institution of use, or similar authority, prior to using the CyAn ADP. PPE should be worn at all times when using any part of the CyAn ADP. Samples of any kind should not be handled without wearing gloves. Caution should be used when handling any biohazardous samples. Any reagents used on the instrument, or in the preparation of samples for use on the CyAn ADP, should be handled by professional users only. 4. SAMPLE O-Ring: There is an o-ring located in the top interior of the sample injection area. The purpose of this o-ring is to create a seal when a test tube is placed on the sample probe, which results in pressurization of the tube. Over time this o-ring may lose its elasticity or become damaged from repeated contact with polypropylene test tubes. Deterioration of this o-ring may cause test tubes to be loose when placed on the sample probe, leading to the potential for test tubes filled with biohazardous samples falling off, causing exposure to the operator or other laboratory personnel. This occurrence is not likely, but if an operator experiences this condition, Dako Customer Care should be contacted immediately so the o- ring can be replaced. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 11
5. SAMPLE Waste Manifold: Waste fluid is continuously generated when running the CyAn ADP and is a normal function of this instrument. This waste fluid is routed through a manifold located within the SMS cart. If this part malfunctions, a backup of fluid may occur, resulting in waste fluid dripping through a small hole in the top corner of the sample injection area. Because this waste fluid may contain biohazardous material, caution should be used if this fault is identified; however, this occurrence is highly unlikely. PPE should be worn at all times when using any part of the CyAn ADP to ensure protection of the operator from all potential hazards. If an operator identifies such a leak, Customer Care should be contacted immediately. 6. AEROSOLS: The CyAn ADP is a flow cytometry analyzer and has no sorting capabilities. No aerosols are generated under normal operating conditions. In the event of extreme over pressurization of the system, there is a remote chance that sample and/or waste fluid could exit orifices at a rate which could potentially create aerosols; however, this has never been experienced. If at any time an operator identifies a potential overpressurization problem, Customer Care should be contacted immediately. 7. SAMPLE PROBE: The sample probe is constructed of stainless steel and the end of the probe is slightly squared off. Accidental direct contact with the end of the probe and the skin could cause an abrasion or cut. Because biohazardous samples are run through the sample probe, there is a chance that if the skin is broken due to direct contact with the end of the sample probe, an operator could be directly exposed to biohazardous material. Use caution when loading and unloading samples on the probe. PPE should be worn at all times when using any part of the CyAn ADP. Samples of any kind should never be used on the CyAn ADP without gloves being worn. If any injury related to the sample probe occurs, Dako Customer Care should be contacted immediately. Laser Safety WARNING Wear Personal Protective Equipment in accordance with your laboratory safety procedures when operating or maintaining this instrument. Use of this instrument in a manner other than that specified in this manual may cause impairment of equipment, compromise safety, and/or result in injury. CAUTION Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure. This radiation will be in the visible regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Do not attempt to defeat the interlocks or open covers or panels retained with screws. The CyAn ADP instrument conforms to international regulations encompassing laser safety. The CyAn ADP is a Class 1 laser device. CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT IEC/EN 60825-1/A2:2001 12 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
This designation indicates no hazardous laser energy is accessible to the user during normal operation or during a failure mode. Note Because the CyAn ADP has been designed to operate as a Class 1 Laser Device, the instrument must be operated with all light containment tubes in place and all protective light seals intact. Most laser components of the CyAn ADP flow cytometer are Class IIIB to Class IV. As such, these lasers have the potential to cause injury. There is one small viewing window inside the CyAn ADP, but its purpose is to be used only by trained Dako personnel during service or repair. A safety interlock prevents operators from viewing laser light through this viewing window under normal operating conditions. Certification of regulatory compliance of these lasers often requires significant involvement from the institutional or company laser-safety officer. Dako does not provide regulatory certification for the individual lab, but can offer assistance in laser safety matters. All access plates and other user accessible points of potential laser exposure are clearly designated on the CyAn ADP instrument with the labels illustrated in figures 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 below. Interlocks are designed to prevent accidental irradiation of the operator. The user should not defeat these interlocks. Any questions or concerns regarding laser safety of the CyAn ADP should be directed to Dako Customer Care. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 13

Section 3 System Overview The CyAn ADP is a state-of-the-art flow cytometer that utilizes one or more laser excitation sources to analyze biological cells, beads, or other microscopic particles as they are transported through an interrogation point in single file. Information can be gathered from large numbers of particles in a relatively short time so that populations can be studied or differentiated from other populations using simple to complex statistical methods. Physical and biochemical characteristics that can be measured using this instrument include but are not limited to forward scatter (sizerelated), side scatter (morphology-related), fluorescence from tagged (stained) cells/particles, and auto fluorescence from non-stained cells/particles. CyAn ADP Features The CyAn ADP High-Performance Flow Cytometer is a research tool engineered for precision analysis of cells, bacteria, and other similarly sized particles. With CyAn ADP, Dako sets a new industry standard with a combination of features never before available on a bench-top analyzer. CyAn ADP gives users three excitation lines with independent, alignment-free focusing optics, simultaneous nine color and two scatter parameters, analysis rates of 70,000 events per second, a full 9 9 interlaser compensation matrix, and high sensitivity. The result is stable, user-friendly, and flexible technology. The instrument is optimized for cell cycle, kinetics, fluorescent protein work, and multi-color immunophenotyping. Rare-event analysis, such as MHC Dextramer studies, and no-lyse whole blood applications are easily performed on the CyAn ADP. The instrument also provides simplified compensation before, during, and after acquisition with unequaled sensitivity in all fluorescent parameters. The main features of CyAn ADP include: Walk-Up Operation CyAn ADP offers walk-up operation that puts even a novice user at ease. With no optical alignment necessary, the user simply places a 5 ml sample tube in the tube holder and chooses the desired protocol in Summit software. The software is used to control instrument settings. Bench-Top Configuration The CyAn ADP was designed with today s laboratories in mind. The CyAn ADP measures 30 cm wide x 45 cm deep x 40 cm high. Summit Software Summit software, Dako s premier cytometry software product, offers full control of all CyAn ADP functions, coupled with robust user- and application-specific data acquisition, analysis, storage, reduction, and retrieval. Summit software controls all instrument parameters in an intuitive MS Windows -based drag-and-drop environment using simple protocol-based menus. Summit CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 19
software also provides high-content data acquisition, database capabilities, and open architecture for data exchange. Additional features include off-line analysis and easy page layout. Safety The CyAn ADP High-Performance Cell/Bead Analyzer has been designed to incorporate the highest level of laboratory and operator safety. CyAn ADP Subsystems CyAn ADP has four key subsystems that form a powerful research tool. The four subsystems are: Fluidics Optics Electronics Software Figure 3.1: CyAn ADP Functional Block Diagram 20 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
A functional block diagram for the CyAn ADP High-Performance Flow Cytometer is shown in figure 3.1. The fluidics system pressurizes the system and transports particles to the interrogation point. Lasers are used as excitation sources and their beams, along with the ensuing scatter and fluorescence, are directed within the optical system. Electronics are used to power and control the instrument functions. The software provides the user interface for the above fluidics, optical, and electronic hardware, and the functions to acquire, analyze, and store data associated with the particles. Fluidics The Sheath Management System controls the transfer of sheath fluid, waste, and cleaner fluid throughout the CyAn ADP system. Sheath fluid is housed in either a replaceable 20 liter cubitainer or 20 liter plastic carboy. Waste is contained in a 20 liter plastic carboy. Cleaner fluid is contained in a 5 liter cubitainer. The Sheath Management System provides improved sheath pressure stability and prevents bubbles from entering the system when the sheath container is changed. The built-in cleaner fluid cubitainer allows the user to easily clean and rinse the headunit sheath path using Dako Clean and Rinse solution and sheath or DI water as rinsing fluid. The 20 liter sheath and waste containers provide approximately 24 hours of system run time. Figure 3.2 outlines the key fluidics components of CyAn ADP. In general, flow of air and fluids follows a path left to right in the diagram. An air compressor provides pressure for propulsion of the sample, cleaner, and sheath fluids. Air regulators condition and stabilize the pressure source prior to sheath and cleaner reservoirs and sample vessel. A number of electrically controlled valves control the flow state of the system and provide a means for cleaning and debubbling, in addition to routine flow conditions for sample analysis. Sample is forced through tubing, is introduced to the flow cell, and is fluidically focused by sheath fluid. This hydrodynamic focusing effect causes individual particles to be introduced in single file to each of the sequential laser beams. While a pinch valve is used to allow the flow of sample, the rate of sample flow is controlled by adjusting the over-pressure (differential pressure) of an electrically controlled air regulator relative to sheath pressure. Waste is drawn by a vacuum pump to a holding container for disposal. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 21
Figure 3.2: CyAn ADP Fluidics Block Diagram Optics Three excitation sources are included on the CyAn ADP optical bench. Each path has its own independent, unique steering and focusing elements to provide optimal excitation of particles at the interrogation point. Each laser beam is focused to the quartz flow cell, where particles are transported past the laser beams. Figure 3.3: CyAn ADP Optics Block Diagram 22 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
The focused beams are separated vertically to ensure minimal optical crosstalk between detection paths. Further, the signals that are detected as particles that traverse the beams are electronically gated to reduce unwanted signal interference between parameters. A high numerical aperture custom achromatic objective is used to collect scatter and fluorescence and to generate an image of the interrogation point for each of three apertures (spatial filters). The apertures improve signal to noise by preventing unwanted scatter around the excitation region from entering the detector block. Light that transmits through the spatial filters is collimated and spectrally filtered on its way to the appropriate photomultiplier tubes (PMT) for detection. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 23
Figure 3.4 illustrates the location, position, and orientation of the optical filters and PMTs within the detection block assembly of the CyAn ADP. Dichroic filters are located at 45 degrees to the direction of light propagation, while emission filters are located at 90 degrees to the light path. Filter sticks are interchangeable, thus allowing custom configurations to be implemented. Please contact Dako to order dichroic filter sets. 488 nm Laser Laser 1 FL4 SSC FL1 FL2 FL3 FL5 SSC FITC GFP PE PE- TxRed PI PE- Cy5 PerCP 7AAD PE- Cy7 Photomultiplier Tubes 488/10 530/40 575/25 613/20 680/30 750LP Emission Filters R95% 545DLP 595DLP 640DLP 730DLP mirror Dichroic Filters 650DLP 730DLP mirror 485DLP mirror 665/20 750LP 450/50 530/40 Emission Filters Fluorescence & Scatter from Interrogation Point APC APC- Cy7 CAS B CFP DAPI Pacific Blue CAS Y FL9 FL8 FL6 FL7 * Filter configurations are easily modified to accommodate different applications. 635 nm Laser 405 nm Laser Figure 3.4: CyAn ADP Detector Block and Optical Filter Layout 24 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Electronics CyAn ADP has an array of electronic components. The PC/workstation is used for instrument control, status, and data acquisition functions and communicates with the CyAn ADP instrument through a high-speed serial link. Housed within the instrument is a state-of-the-art electronic chassis that provides a communication backplane/bus with a number of available card slots to allow modular connection of key electronic control and sensing components. These components include trigger and signal processing, and multi-function input/output. Peripheral to the electronic chassis, but within the instrument are a number of devices that can be grouped as fluidics control and sense (pumps, regulators, valves, and sensors), laser/shutter control and sense, PMT voltage control, and PMT signal. The multifunction I/O card is used for controlling these peripheral devices and sensing instrument status. The PMT and photodiode detectors convert light emitted from particles excited at the interrogation point, into electrical signals. These signals are input to the trigger and signal processing cards. Amplification, analog to digital conversion, and sampling techniques provide quantitative measurements including peak, area/integral, log, and pulse width for a given triggered particle event. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 25
Peripheral Devices The CyAn ADP instrument includes the following peripheral devices: Summit Workstation with a printer, and the Sheath Management System (SMS). The SMS houses a sheath container, waste container, cleaner cubitainer, reusable plastic carboy, level indicators, in-line sheath filter, and compressor/vacuum pump. Software CyAn ADP uses Summit software for instrument control, data acquisition, and subsequent data analysis. Summit software is the Windows user interface for the entire Dako flow cytometry product line. Summit software offers users complete control of the CyAn ADP instrument at varying levels of complexity, depending on their needs. Summit software, on CyAn ADP with all parameters enabled, has the capability to acquire, save, and analyze up to 10 million events (see page 43). The instrument control panel (figure 3.5) provides access to laser control, event rate settings, system maintenance functions such as clean and rinse, and Sheath Management System functions. The sample parameters panel (figure 3.6) has software controls for adjusting parameter settings such as threshold, PMT voltage, and gain. User documentation for Summit software is available from the Help menu. Figure 3.6: Sample Parameters Panel Figure 3.5: Instrument Control Panel 26 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Summit Software Features Summit software offers compensation, flexibility, intelligence, organization, and intuitiveness. Figure 3.7: Summit Software Desktop Display Compensation Summit software performs full inter-laser compensation of fluorescence parameters. Data saved as a sample file in Summit software will retain all compensation values as well as the uncompensated data for each parameter. Flexibility Summit software offers flexibility throughout the program to allow the data to be gathered and manipulated in ways that best suit the application and user. For example, virtually any logical expression can be defined using any number of regions in AND and NOT combinations for generating statistics, including non-rectangular regions with an almost limitless number of vertices. In addition, any and all parameters available with the CyAn ADP High-Performance Flow Cytometer can be selectively stored, including the ability to disable non-contiguous groups of parameters. Eliminating unnecessary parameters increases the display performance during acquisition and reduces data storage needs. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 27
Intelligence While performing batch analysis, Summit software's intelligent parameter matching feature dynamically determines the correct parameter to display for a sample based on antibody, stain, name, parameter type, channel, or a combination of these. Organization Summit software s sample viewer tracks samples in user-definable folders. Tests and controls with different parameters can be grouped, and samples can be dragged and dropped between folders to help organize information. Statistics for each gate or region are automatically available under each histogram. 28 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide

Section 9 Six-Color Compensation Experiment Background Compensation is the process of resolving the actual intensities from each antibody conjugate in a multicolored sample. Using single color staining or single color fluorochromes as a compensation control makes it possible to define the relative amount of light that ends up in another detector. For example, compensation can be used to determine how much light from FITC ends up in the FL2 detector and, conversely, how much light from PE ends up in the FL1 detector (see figure below). This percentage is defined as the spillover coefficient of FITC into FL2 and PE into FL1. By having these spillover coefficients defined for all colors and channels in an experiment, it is possible to calculate the compensation of data in a multicolor sample using linear algebra. This is the way that compensation is performed mathematically in Summit software and other offline flow analysis software. The amount of light that is detected in each fluorescence parameter (FL1, FL2) is the area under the curve of each spectra. If two fluorochromes are bound to the same cell, the sum of the light from each fluorochrome is detected. Knowing the spillover in both directions makes it possible to mathematically determine the light from each fluorochrome. For two fluorochromes, the following math is used: FL1(FITC) = FL1(total) a 12 FL2(total) FL2(PE) = FL2(total) a 21 FL1(total) where a 12 is the spillover of FITC into FL2 and a 21 is the spillover of PE into FL1. The (total) is the signal measured on the dual stained cell in each channel. This math can be extrapolated into an infinite number of colors. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 65
The following 6-color experiment utilizes the Blue (488nm), Violet (405nm) and Red (635nm) lasers, uses the fluorochromes FITC, PE, PE-Cy5, Cascade Yellow, Pacific Blue and APC, and involves compensation. Whole blood is drawn from a donor and partitioned into 8 tubes. Tube # 1 is not stained with any fluorochrome (a "no stain" control). Tubes # 2-7 are each stained using one of the 6 colors. Cells within tube # 8 are stained using all 6 fluorochromes. To the right is a table listing the 8 tubes, fluorochromes used for each, and the respective cell surface marker targeted. *Please note that in Tube # 6 we have used CD3 Cascade Yellow and not CD45 Cascade Yellow as added in Tube # 8. By using CD3 Cascade Yellow, an adequate number of positive and negative events will be seen, making compensation setup easier. In general, it is possible to use any fluorochrome antibody conjugate with the same fluorochromes to set compensation. If the lymphocyte gate (R1) is set correctly, then the number of CD45 negative events seen will be minimal, making derivation of compensation settings difficult. In Tube # 8 the combination of CD45 Cascade Yellow and Side Scatter can be used to set a more accurate lymphocyte gate by allowing for the exclusion of debris, basophils and monocytes. Setting up for sample acquisition When performing a multi-color experiment, the forward and side light scatter parameters should be set to linear; all fluorescent parameters should be set to log. The range of expression of various antigens, e.g. CD3, CD4, CD8 etc, on a cell can be very large. This is why we need to use a logarithmic scale to ensure we can see the whole range of antigen expression from dim to very bright. When staining for DNA we are usually only looking for a doubling in fluorescence thus a linear scale is preferred.

Create a forward vs. side scatter dot plot and run the non-stained sample (Tube # 1). This allows identification of the cell populations that will be used for gating. Below is a dot-plot showing unstained lysed and washed whole blood, using both the forward and side scatter parameters. The lymphocyte, monocyte, and granulocyte populations have been color coded for easy recognition. Within the forward-side scatter plot, create a tight region around the lymphocyte population (R1). This region will be used to gate the lymphocytes into additional histograms. Now make a single or dual parameter histogram in log for each color of interest gated on the lymphocyte from the FSC / SSC plot. Adjust the PMT voltage for each color so that the unstained lymphocyte population is situated within the first log decade for all colors. It is important the PMT voltage is set fairly high to prevent the median of the negative becoming 1, because that will add uncertainty to the manual compensation (see page 72). Acquire the single color compensation controls/tubes, as well as the multi color tube(s), with these PMT settings. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 67
Setting Up Histograms for Compensation When performing a multi-color experiment, a non-stained sample (Tube #1) is run, followed by the first "single color" stain to be analyzed (e.g. Tube # 2 FITC). Create a series of plots such that this parameter is paired with each of the other colors in the experiment. For example, this 6-color experiment involves FITC, PE, PE-Cy5, Cascade Yellow, Pacific Blue and APC. If FITC is the first "single color" to be run, 5 plots should be created: FITC vs. PE, FITC vs. PE-Cy5, FITC vs. APC, FITC vs. Cascade Yellow, and FITC vs. Pacific Blue. Typically, we recommend that you plot FITC along the X-axis and the other 5 colors along the Y. Additionally, you will need to create quadrant regions within each of the dot plots except FSC vs. SSC. Statistics from the quadrant regions will be used in setting compensation from the control samples and identifying positive and negative populations in the "all stains" sample. In general, we recommend that you position the quadrants to encompass the first 1.5 log decades. The graphic below shows 5 plots that have been created for the 6-color data. Notice that FITC has been paired against the other 5 fluorochromes used in the experiment. 68 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
After creating the necessary histograms and quadrant regions, apply the gate from the lymphocyte population region (R1) to the 5 dot plots. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 69
Load the non-stained sample Tube # 1 to verify that the PMT settings were adjusted correctly during acquisition. 70 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Manual Compensation After gating the dot plots for the lymphocyte population within region (R1) in the FSC vs. SSC dot plot, load the first "single color" sample. In theory, it does not matter which of the 6 "single color" samples you begin with, although in this example we are starting with FITC. You will notice that in the FITC vs. PE plot, the positive population is shifted into the upper right quadrant. This means the signal from the FITC population is also being detected by the PE parameter. The degree to which signal is being detected for the PE parameter represents the % spillover of PE into the FITC signal. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 71
Setting Spillover Percentage for Compensation For proper compensation, adjust the spillover percentage so that the Y-axis median fluorescence value for the positive population (lower right hand quadrant) is equivalent to that seen with the negative population (lower left hand quadrant). A range of ± 1.0 is usually acceptable. By adjusting the spillover percentage value, the negative population might obtain a value of 1 before the median of the positive and negative population are aligned (thus the high PMT settings as previously explained). If so, you might need to adjust the spillover percentage without having the negative to align to, which can result in overcompensation. Overcompensation in general is to be avoided, as this can result in populations of interest disappearing when analyzing the multicolor samples. Negative cell population Y-axis median fluorescence value Positive cell population Y-axis median fluorescence value Lower left hand quadrant = Negative cell population Lower right hand quadrant = Positive cell population 72 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Running the Second Sample Next, load the second "single color" sample. Before doing this, change the parameters of each of the histograms such that the second color (in this case PE) is plotted against the other 5 colors: PE vs. FITC, PE vs. PE-Cy5, PE vs. APC, PE vs. Cascade Yellow and PE vs. Pacific Blue. Two populations will be delineated, one being PE negative and the other positive. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 73
Again, compare the Y-axis median fluorescence between the lower left and lower right quadrants, and adjust compensation as needed. Why adjust compensation for the PE vs. FITC plot when FITC vs. PE was compensated for the FITC sample? This is because the % fluorescent spillover occurs both ways, FITC into the PE parameter and PE into the FITC parameter. Look at the spectral emission curves for both fluorochromes. You will notice that the degree of spillover between the two fluorochromes actually differs. This is why compensation must be adjusted based on both the FITC and PE "single color" samples. 74 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Running the Remaining Samples Now run the third "single color" sample, in this case PE-Cy5. Again, remember to reset the parameters along the dot plot axes so that PE-Cy5 is plotted against the other 5 colors. Note, these steps will be repeated for the remaining "single color" samples. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 75
Where necessary, adjust compensation to align the Y-axis median fluorescence (relative to the other 5 colors) between the lower left and lower right quadrants. 76 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide

Where necessary, adjust compensation to align the Y-axis median fluorescence (relative to the other 5 colors) between the lower left and lower right quadrants. Now the spillover percentage is defined for all the combinations of colors and the multicolored sample can be analyzed. This experiment has demonstrated offline compensation; however, compensation can be applied during acquisition as well. 82 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Running the All Stains Sample Finally, run the "all stains" sample. This sample can be analyzed using dot plots containing any combination of the 6 parameters: FITC, PE, PE-Cy5, APC, Cascade Yellow and Pacific Blue. If compensation has been properly set, the populations will be aligned so that the positive and negative populations can be easily identified. When performing Lymphocyte sub set analysis, it is preferable to use CD45 vs. SSC to locate the lymphocyte population than FSC vs. SSC. CD45 vs. SSC gating allows for the determination of a cleaner lymphocyte population by excluding other contaminating cell populations from the gate. The plots shown below illustrate this. If the lymphocyte gate is set using FSC vs. SSC it is likely to include some debris (Blue), basophils (Green) and some monocytes (Gray). These contaminating populations can be easily identified and excluded using a CD45 vs. SSC plot. Debris (Blue) Monocytes (Gray) Lymphocytes (Red) Basophils (Green) CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 83
Create a plot showing CD45 (Cascade Yellow) vs. SSC and draw a region enclosing the lymphocyte population that have low SSC and bright CD45 staining, taking care to exclude the basophils and monocytes. Apply this gate to the rest of the plots. Putting Compensation into Practice This tutorial has demonstrated how to perform a 6-color experiment involving compensation. However, after running the "all stains" sample, how does one make sense of and use the compensated data from the "all stains" sample? The following histograms illustrate the different cell populations that can be identified, analyzed, and/or sorted based on the 6-color experiment. For each of the cell populations below, identification is based upon the presence or absence of specific cell surface markers. To recall which marker correlates to which fluorochrome; refer to the original tube setup table at right. Tube # 8 CD4 FITC CD56 CD19 CD8 CD45 CD3 PE PE-Cy5 APC Cascade Yellow Pacific Blue CD3+ T-Lymphocytes Create a dot plot showing compensated CD3 Pacific Blue vs. compensated CD19 PE-Cy5 gated through the lymphocyte gate R1. The CD3+ T-Lymphocyte population appears in the lower right hand quadrant (R42 in the example shown). So in this case the CD3+ T-Lymphocyte population constitutes 69% of the total lymphocyte population. CD 19+ B-Lymphocytes Using the compensated CD3 vs. compensated CD19 plot, the CD19+ B-Lymphocytes are found in the upper left quadrant (R39). 84 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
CD4+/CD3+ T-Lymphocytes (T-Helper cells) Create a dot plot showing compensated CD3 Pacific Blue vs. compensated CD4 FITC. The CD4+/CD3+ T-Lymphocytes are found in the upper right quadrant (R44). Events found in the upper left quadrant (R43) that are CD4 dim and CD3 negative are contaminating monocytes in the lymphocyte gate. CD8+/CD3+ T-Lymphocytes (T-Cytotoxic/Suppressor cells) Create a dot plot showing compensated CD3 Pacific Blue vs. compensated CD8 APC. The CD8+/CD3+ T-Lymphocytes are found in the upper right quadrant (R36). Events found in the upper left quadrant (R35) that are CD8 dim and CD3 negative are sub set of Natural Killer lymphocytes. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 85
Natural Killer Lymphocytes Create a dot plot of compensated CD3 Pacific Blue vs. compensated CD56 PE. Natural Killer lymphocytes are found in the upper left quadrant (R31). Occasionally a small population of T-Lymphocytes can be seen which also express CD56. These Natural killer like lymphocytes can be distinguished from true Natural Killer lymphocytes because they are also positive for CD3. (See upper right quadrant R32). 86 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Section 10 Auto Compensation Summit software provides an automatic method to obtain a full compensation matrix for multicolor analysis. The compensation matrix is calculated from single stained controls by the autocompensate function. Auto Compensation for Single Positive Controls The following procedure describes how to use Summit software Auto Compensation feature within single stained controls. Although this feature provides an automatic method to compensate data, compensation can still be adjusted, fine-tuned, or performed manually or via the compensation matrix. 1. Acquire the single-control samples required for your experiment. The first control sample should include an unstained or isotype control for which you will set PMT Voltages. From the resulting dot plot, you can determine gating if required. Any gates that you want to use must be set before you apply Auto Compensation. Note: During the Auto Compensation operation, adjustments to only the size and placement of regions are allowed. 2. Run the remaining single control samples and save the data files. 3. Load all control sample files into an experiment folder. 4. Click the Sample tab. 5. In the Sample Compensation panel, click the small, blue icon in the upper-left corner and select Auto Compensate from the list. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 87
The Auto Comp Sample dialog box appears. 6. Select a gate from the Gate list, if applicable. 7. From the Experiment list, select the experiment folder that contains your control samples. 8. Select all of the single control samples included in the experiment. 9. Click OK. A new Workspace labeled AutoComp is created and the first set of dot plots is displayed (see figure 10.1). Each dot plot places the control parameter on the x-axis and a parameter to compensate against on the y-axis. Default auto compensation Dim and Bright regions are displayed and, if a gate was selected, it is applied to each dot plot. The Auto Compensate dialog box appears. Important If you click Cancel at any point in the auto compensation process, you will clear the compensation matrix and the AutoComp workspace. 88 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Figure 10.1 Single Control Sample Dot Plots 10. Examine the % Hist statistics for each histogram. If either the Dim or Bright region contains less than 5% of the data for the dot plot, click-and-drag the region until greater than 5% of the data appears in both the Dim and Bright regions. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 89
11. When all regions on all plots contain greater than 5% of the data, Click Next on the Auto Compensate dialog box. The next set of dot plots will appear. 12. Repeat step 10 until all single-control samples have been compensated. When auto compensation is complete, the compensation matrix contains the appropriate values and the AutoComp workspace is removed. 90 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Section 11 VisiComp Using the VisiComp Feature after Compensation Prior to the development of Summit software version 4.3, compensation was done through logarithmic plots, which could not display 0 or negative values. Because these values were not displayed, you might have inadvertently over-compensated when compensating manually, or found it was difficult to verify the results of the auto compensation feature. To help you better visualize the results of compensation, Summit software now includes a new VisiComp scaling algorithm that displays 0 and negative values. VisiComp provides a good way to verify the results of the Summit software Auto Compensation feature, and allows you to fine tune and make adjustments to compensation. Recommended use of VisiComp: 1. Pre-load all necessary samples (Listmode *.fcs files) that are required to perform compensation. 2. Create all necessary plots, regions, and gates to establish the compensation gating. 3. Enable VisiComp. On the Sample tab, in the Compensation panel, click the icon select VisiComp. in the upper left, and 4. Use either the auto compensation wizard to set up plots, or manually set up all of the plots that you want to use for compensation analysis. 5. If you did not use the auto compensation wizard, perform auto compensation on a per-plot basis. CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 91
6. To adjust the width of the VisiComp linear region, click the small, blue icon in the upper left portion of the dot plot and select Adjust VisiComp. Use the slider tool, or enter a specific value to complete the adjustment. Note: The adjusted width of the VisiComp linear region applies to all plots and histograms that display compensated parameters in any one sample template. Because of this, it is important to display all data before you adjust the width. What is ideal for one parameter pair may not be ideal for another. Therefore, adjust the width to display the best compromise across all plots. 7. Create regions and gates to complete your analysis. Note: When you make width adjustments after you have created regions, the software attempts to adjust the regions to the new scale. However, the result is not always precise due to cumulative rounding errors. Therefore, you must verify the locations of your regions if you adjust the width after you have created regions. Important: If you turn off VisiComp, any regions that extend into the negative area of the VisiComp scale will be moved where they can be displayed on the log scale. Any regions that were entirely in the negative area will have a 0 width and 0 height. 92 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide
Section 12 WorkList Builder Overview WorkList Builder in Summit software allows you to create reagent and specimen/researcher databases and lists of tests to be run on Dako flow cytometers. Once your common panels and tests (tubes or samples) are defined, they can be easily incorporated into Worklists for use during acquisition. This guide demonstrates how to set up and define your panels tests (samples or tubes), and specify antibody-fluorochrome (Ab/FL) combinations, in addition to setting up Worklists. Included in this section is a setup for a six-color panel involving an unstained control, six singlecolor controls, and an All Stains sample. For purposes of instruction, this guide will follow the workflow below. 1) Accessing the WorkList Builder. 2) Creating and naming a panel. 3) Defining reagents (Ab/FL): you need these when creating tubes. 4) Creating tests (tubes or samples) and associating them with the correct reagents: you need these defined in order to incorporate them into panels. 5) Specifying the tests (tubes or samples) within a panel. 6) Setting up and creating Worklists from your defined panels and tests. Important: All examples in this section require the following Runtime Option to be turned off. The Disable unused parameters checkbox is clear by default. For most applications Dako recommends that you leave this off. Note: This option is only available when you are running WorkList Builder through Summit software online (Edit > Runtime Options). CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide 93
Accessing the WorkList Builder The WorkList Builder can be accessed directly within Summit software, either through the main Summit menus (View > Worklist Panel) or by selecting Ctrl + W. Alternatively, the WorkList Builder can be run independently of Summit software by selecting the WorkList Builder v2.0 icon on the desktop. 94 CyAn ADP with Summit Software User Guide

High-throughput screening Interest is growing in the use of flow cytometers to screen cell- or bead-based combinatorial libraries. 1-3 Increasingly, flow cytometric assays are used to detect molecules that bind to a target protein in vitro or exhibit a particular activity in a cell-based assay. Flow cytometry also enables screening of protein libraries expressed in cells or displayed on the surface of bacteria or beads. A flow cytometer, for instance, can detect modulation of a signal transduction pathway by a particular small molecule and identify proteins with a particular binding specificity, enzymatic activity, expression level and stability. The CyAn ADP High-Performance Analyzer and the MoFlo High-Performance Cell Sorter are finding wide application in this arena. CyAn ADP Trudeau Institute Mayer, K. D., K. Mohrs, et al. 2005.
