Abstract

The fluidic system (10) of the preferred embodiment includes a sheath pump (12) to pump sheath fluid from a sheath container (16) into an interrogation zone (18) and a waste pump (20) to pump waste fluid from the interrogation zone (18) into a waste container (24). The sheath pump (12) and/or the waste pump (20) draw sample fluid from a sample container (28) into the interrogation zone (18).The fluidic system (10) also includes a controller (30) to adjust the flow rate of the sample fluid from the sample container (28) into the interrogation zone (18). The fluidic system (10) is preferably incorporated into a flow cytometer with a flow cell that includes the interrogation zone (18).
