________________________________________
"Mark A. Corio" suggests the need for a listserve approach:
Here is my reply:
The lsit is run from my lab
and
Steve kelley send me your message.
The way our list is run is by intention.
It is designed for maximum value and least annoyance.
We believe that a message that is to be
sent to the list myst be intentioned to the list.
Otherwise individuals communicate directly.
We will not be changing this method
as it is the one favored overwhelmingly by the group.
There are virtually no trash emails on this group.
There is a very good reason for that.
If anyone sends trash mail, they are rapidl;y
deleted from the list
and
their access is barred.
This makes a very
strong incentive to keep a high quality of discussion.
My experience
with listserves is the rubbish is overwhelming!
We have considered
many times the advantages of a listserve ,
and the disadvantages far
outweigh them.
Since we are one of the older scientific discussion
groups out there, our track-record speaks for itself.
We do encourage
people to tabulate results of their questions.
They invariably do
this and we thank you.
While, I appreciate this might generate some email,
let's not fill
the box.
We are NOT going to change it anyway!!!

Just one more stupidity by a manufacturer

________________________________________
I just wanted to relate a little story... draw from it your own
conclusions.
Here at Stanford we were enthusiastic about one of BD's new software
products, Attractors. It would be obviously useful to our ongoing
clinical trial... About 6 months ago, I went to BD to test the
software
with some of our data (collected here, using our own software), and
it worked quite well.
About 2 weeks ago, a BD salesperson stopped by with a demo version,
trying to sell us on the software. We decided to go ahead and test
it
on our data. Much to my surprise, it could not read our data files!
(It gave a generic file reading error, stating that the file was
damaged
or not an FCS file.) I called up BD and spoke with one of the
programmers.
I was informed that the decision had been made by "BD Sales" to modify
the
FCS header reading portion of Attractors so as to only read FCS files
created by BD's software (i.e., HP-generated)! (The reasoning being,
apparently,that they didn't want people with Coulters to be able to
use the
program.)
So much for our demo. And so much for the possibility that we will
be
purchasing Attractors, since we don't generate data with BD
software.
(Hey sales people at BD: do you know how many macintoshes there are
here at Stanford that could be using your software to analyze data?
50?
100?) And it also means that the market for Attractors is
significantly
limited. Is this really good "Sales" policy?
In the open-computing environment that is the general trend of this
decade, this kind of decision is rather insulting to the user
community.
Mario Roederer
(PS--the sale pricing on Attractors was also interesting: as quoted
to
us, it is cheaper to buy a total of 6 copies than to buy 3. Go
figure.)

With the added advantage that all the samples in your group are listed

Re: BD Attractors Software Technology
In reaction to Dr. RoedererUs message about file compatibility of
BDUs
recently introduced Attractors software technology, we would like to
make
the following comments:
BDIS invested in the development of this unique software tool to
enhance the
value of its Instrument and Reagent systems. It was decided to make
the first
release of the software compatible with list mode data files that are
generated by BD CONSORT 30 and 32, as well as by BD FACStation data
management systems. This being consistent with our general Systems
approach.
The product literature clearly documents the supported
compatibilities.
In addition, we would like to point out that to our knowledge, none of
the
analysis software of the major cytometer manufacturers claim to
support
files generated from other systems.
As to pricing, we use a common volume-based pricing policy, whereby
additional copies of the software cost the end user less than the
first. 6
copies in this policy are not less expensive than 3.

==============================================================================
The most logical way to hook up a computer with a thin coax port (like
the HP
340) to a 10Base-T network would be to use a transceiver that has a
10Base-T
connector and a coax connector. A hub would be overkill as would a
repeater.
I have tested the CTP100-T from Cabletron and it works great. A nice
feature
of this unit is that it allows you to connect up to 10 ethernet
devices on
the coax segment.
If you have several devices in close proximity to each other, you
shouldn't
have to buy multiple transceivers. The coax segment can be up to 100m
in
length. When you hook everything together, don't forget to terminate
the end
of the coax segment!
Here's what Cabletron's catalog says about the unit:
"Cabletron's CTP100-T Coax-to-Twisted Pair Transceiver is intended for
use in
10BASE-T compatible Ethernet systems. The CTP100-T supports up to 100
meters
each of coax and twisted pair cabling. As many as 10 nodes may be
connected
to the coax segment. The CTP100-T is extremely useful in environments
where
thin Ethernet cards have been purchased and installed. The
tranceiver's other
features include automatic polarity correction and indication which
detects
whether receive pair polarity has been inverted. If an error is
detected, the
CTP100-T will correct the polarity for the proper reception. In
addition, the
CTP100-T filters noise induced on the receiver pair to prevent noise-
induced
false collisions."
Here are the specs on the unit:
Type of Interface: 10Base-T(RJ45)
10Base-2(BNC)
Number of ports: 1
Weight: 7 oz.
Dimensions: 3.3"H x 5.3"W x .9"D
Max Coax Length: 100m
Max Twisted Pair: 100m
Max # of Nodes on Coax: 10
MTBF: 931,098 Hours
List Price: $600
Special Purchase Price: $375
I have lots of experience with Cabletron and they make top-notch
equipment.
You should never experience trouble with this unit!
I have talked to our rep at Cabletron and he has agreed to sell the
units at
a special rate of $375.
Contact: Jan Boldman
(408) 441-9900 ext. 1226
Tell her that you were referred by Ron Mickaels (pronounced the same
as
Michaels) from Becton Dickinson.
*******
If you donUt have an application to do FTP transfers to the Mac, you
may
want to consider TCP/Connect II from InterCon. This is the program
that I use
to receive files from FACSNet HP and IUve had good success with it.
ItUs got
lots of features that you probably donUt need and itUs kind of
expensive, but
there arenUt too many FTP/TCP/IP programs out there! The program
should be
available at Egghead software and other distributors.
*******
One other note: When specifying IP addresses for your computers,
remember to
1. generate a unique address for each node and
2. NOT use 255 or 128 in the address. For example: the address 1.4.2.4
is a
valid address, but the address 1.255.128.45 could cause problems! This
is not
to say that you can't use these addresses, but most of the liturature
that I
have read says that you can have problems if you use them. Something
to do
with routing signals to subnets.
*******
Please keep in mind that this is not an "official" Becton Dickinson
recomendation. If you try this setup and it does not work for you,
PLEASE do
not call our service department! They will not know what you are
talking
about! The first time that I hooked this stuff up to our network it
took me 2
hours to get it to work. My point is that the problem wasn't with the
equipment, it was problems with the network. If all is ok with your
network,
then it should work fine!
HAPPY CRUNCHING!

OFFICE MEMO RE>FACSCAN -> PC Date:
6/16/93
In reply to Nick Viner's recent message, I have one specific
clarification.
"Verity have a package called WHPPC which provides both the board and
software for $895, although we could get the board alone for less and
use
software provided by BD, I understand."
BD does not have any software for the IEEE-488 solutions. The
original
"HPPCLink" software written here was never brought to market and now
resides
in the archives at CMU as a non-supported shareware program. That
software
was designed for Pascal version 3.1 based systems. We provided the
source
code to Verity Software House to update the program, and they have
revised
the Pascal portion of the code to work with Pascal 3.2 systems, and
wrote a
program on the PC side that runs under Microsoft Windows. The
transfer
software requires both the HP and PC programs, along with an IEEE-488
board
and cable. The above quote from Nick is fine but the software need
come
from either the CMU library or Verity.
As for Verity's WHPPC product, I have recieved no negative feedback
from
customers who are using it and they seem very happy with it as a low
cost
solution for connecting a single PC to an HP.

Alice Givan asks about Bob Murphy's program which reads key words
from an FCS file. The program is called FCSTAB and allows you to
read a number of keywords including such things as beginning and
ending time of acquisition, filename, instrment settings, etc. and
save them to a file or print them out in table format. The copy I
have is version 3.0 and is running on a MicroVax II operating VMS
5.3. I do not know if there are other versions of this program
which will run on other platforms. I am able to read files from
the Consort30 once they are transferred to the MicroVAX via HPVAXLINK.
I am willing to copy this program to a TK50 for anyone who can use it
providing you send me the TK50 to put it on.

PC->GPIB->Paintjet

Does anyone else out there have:
1. A PC with a GPIB/IEEE-488 card in use to transfer data files to/
from
the HP computer which came with your B-D FACS?
2. An HP Paintjet used to print from the HP FACS computer?
If so, did you know that you can print directly from the PC to the
Paintjet with your existing hardware and software (no more $)?
I recently realized that I could, and (after several tech support
rounds
with National Instruments gpib_support@natinst.com) figured out how
to do it. I'd be happy to share the details with anyone interested.
You can print beautiful color graphics from any Windows software, e.g.
Joe Trotter's WinMDI, as well as text (in color!) from Wordperfect,
and
from any DOS software which emits plain text or has a Paintjet driver.
Being able to use WinMDI on your B-D data and print the results in
color
on your existing Paintjet makes it worth purchasing the GPIB card,
if you can come up with $450 or so. It will also allow you to use
MFI.
(HPPCLINK software for both the HP and PC is free, courtesy B-D.)
The HP Deskjet (which would work directly from your PC parallel port)
is
really no better for most purposes, and is slower at high resolution
(7 minutes/page). The Paintjet from Windows via IEEE-488 takes 6
minutes
for a full page at 180 dpi (highest Paintjet resolution), and 3
minutes
for 90 dpi which is fine most of the time.
If you want to try out WinMDI or MFI on a PC before you set up the
HP<->PC transfer hardware, the data files in the MFI tutorial can be
used with either. Geoff Osborne's file OSBORNE2.LMD is really pretty
with 3-colors, CD3, CD4, and CD8.
You can get WinMDI by anonymous ftp from flosun.salk.edu in /pub/pc.
MFI and MFITUTOR from flowcyt.bio.umass.edu in /pub/flowcyt/mfi.

Note from the Coordinator:
I'm pretty uncomfortable about using the list for business and

uncomfortable about blocking messages.
I understand why people
object to messages such as this, and only ask that the list not
be consumed for the next month with complaints and arguments about
what people should or shouldn't post. I also ask that we try
to keep our focus on generating and disseminating knowledge

Hello everyone!
My boss just returned from a cytometry meeting where she was
sufficiently impressed with Verity Software's WinList software.
Currently, I am using Cellquest and Elite software. What is it about
WinList that would impress my boss over Cellquest and the Elite
software. What special features does it have and do I need it?
Once again, I appreciate your insight, information, etc.
Thankyou!

In reply to your question:
I have no experience CellQuest. But I do have experience with ELITE
software and WinList. My experience with the ELITE software is with
the
standard DOS version. With the caveat that 3rd party ELITE
for Windows software exists. And, I understand, Coulter is readying
their
own version of the software for Windows 3.1 or '95, I will share my
views.
In general there are 3 major reasons to choose WinList over Elite
software (DOS version). First is versatility. WinList allows the user
to create any number of 1,2, or 3 parameter displays of any size
anywhere
on the screen. They can be shaded, line-drawings, big dots, little
dots, etc. WinList allows complex gating logic and complex calculated
parameters. The user can change the names of the parameters, the
channel
resolution of the histograms, can create color eventing on single
parameter histograms as well as dot-plots. The second major reason is
that Winlist runs under Windows (either 3.1 or '95). This allows the
user
to cut and paste with other Windows programs to create presentation
graphics and link calculations with spreadsheets such as Excel. And
third, WinList will analyze data from virtually any instrument. So
those
of us that have both BD and Coulter cytometers can use one analysis
package for both.

Hi All,
We are preparing some figures for publication and we would like to
adjust the compensation on some data. We have been led to believe that
WinList can do this post-aquisition. First, is this true and do we
need to
have single colour samples saved? Second, if it is possible, is there
anyone in the Syndey region with WinList who would be willing to let
us use
it for a couple of hours?
Replies can be sent directly to my supervisor (Barbara Fazekas, email
-
B.Fazekas@centenary.usyd.edu.au).
Thanks

One feature of Winlist is the ability to perform n-color post
acquisition
compensation, which circumvents the limitations of instrument
subtraction
circuitry, which is often quite limited.

Dear Flow Cytometry User,
The latest versions, FCAP-list v1.30 and FCAP-easy v1.00 flow
cytometry programs have been saved on our WEB site:
http://www.wavefront.com/~softflow
The installer files of both programs can be downloaded automatically
from the site in a self-extracting format, ready for installation.
In addition, the HPtoMac disk conversion software and the FCB
interpreter, two free software applications, are also available
on the site. HPtoMac allows you to copy files from HP-formatted
diskettes onto the Macintosh HD. The current version allows you to
set the four character file type to the desired character sequence.
FCB is an interpreter for the newly developed flow cytometry
programming
language, FCAP BASIC. FCB is a DOS application.
The FCAP-list User's Guide document has been saved on the site in
form of WWW pages:

________________________________________
I asked a question regarding the above some time ago and received some
helpful replies, thanks.
It seems that the programs divide into two price categories, the
expensive
(CellQuest, MacLAS, FCAP List, and Verity's WinList for the Mac, not
yet
released) and the relatively inexpensive, namely FlowJo and FCAP Easy.
We have looked at both of the latter since our facility is primarily
PC
based and we just wanted some additional packages for us Mac users, so
can't afford to spend a lot.
We have been very impressed by FlowJo, from the point of view af
flexible
batch analysis, ease of use, well set up program and excellent support
via
the web site or email. We shall shortly be purchasing several copies
(when
we can arrange the funds, Adam!).
For others with similar requirements I would recommend also having a
look
at FCAP Easy, it has a few other functions at a similar price but I
have to
say I didn't find it easy to use and it didn't really suit our
purposes,
but others may prefer it.
The other solution of running WinMDI under Virtual PC or SoftWindows
we
also tried, and as others had warned us it was quite slow (on a
7200/120
PowerPC) and painfully slow printing. Also, while I still love the
graphics
of this program, the inability to save the workspace (FlowJo term) to
come
back to later is a major disadvantage now.

This is not a general problem of the MAC, it is simply an hurdle that
most
applications don't bother to cross. Specifically, it is no problem
with FlowJo,
which can read Cellquest-generated FCS files (as well as any other
program's FCS
files). FlowJo generates graphics in PICT format, meaning that the
graphs that
you copy to your publication programs are NOT bitmaps (unless you
desire
this--it is a preference). This means that, for instance, when you
copy a
contour plot to Canvas, each contour is a separate polygon that can be
individual colorized, or have the pen pattern changed, etc. Also,
when you copy
histograms, you can easily set the pen patterns--for instance, dashed
lines,
different fill patterns etc. You can also easily resize graphs
without losing
any resolution.
For an example of the kinds of graphs that can be generated on a
Macintosh, see
"http://www.treestar.com/flowjo/documentation/graphwindow/
graphexamples.html".

To those who want something else besides CellQuest for prints/etc from

and
give it a try. I have used WinList on the PC for years and now that I
am a MAC convert it is nice to use Winlist on the MAC.

Hello everyone!
My boss just returned from a cytometry meeting where she was
sufficiently impressed with Verity Software's WinList software.
Currently, I am using Cellquest and Elite software. What is it about
WinList that would impress my boss over Cellquest and the Elite
software. What special features does it have and do I need it?
Once again, I appreciate your insight, information, etc.
Thankyou!
Abby

In reply to your question:
I have no experience CellQuest. But I do have experience with ELITE
software and WinList. My experience with the ELITE software is with
the
standard DOS version. With the caveat that 3rd party ELITE
for Windows software exists. And, I understand, Coulter is readying
their
own version of the software for Windows 3.1 or '95, I will share my
views.
In general there are 3 major reasons to choose WinList over Elite
software (DOS version). First is versatility. WinList allows the user
to create any number of 1,2, or 3 parameter displays of any size
anywhere
on the screen. They can be shaded, line-drawings, big dots, little
dots, etc. WinList allows complex gating logic and complex calculated
parameters. The user can change the names of the parameters, the
channel
resolution of the histograms, can create color eventing on single
parameter histograms as well as dot-plots. The second major reason is
that Winlist runs under Windows (either 3.1 or '95). This allows the
user
to cut and paste with other Windows programs to create presentation
graphics and link calculations with spreadsheets such as Excel. And
third, WinList will analyze data from virtually any instrument. So
those
of us that have both BD and Coulter cytometers can use one analysis
package for both.

Hi All,
We are preparing some figures for publication and we would like to
adjust the compensation on some data. We have been led to believe that
WinList can do this post-aquisition. First, is this true and do we
need to
have single colour samples saved? Second, if it is possible, is there
anyone in the Syndey region with WinList who would be willing to let
us use
it for a couple of hours?
Replies can be sent directly to my supervisor (Barbara Fazekas, email
-
B.Fazekas@centenary.usyd.edu.au).
Thanks

One feature of Winlist is the ability to perform n-color post
acquisition
compensation, which circumvents the limitations of instrument
subtraction
circuitry, which is often quite limited.

Dear Flow Cytometry User,
The latest versions, FCAP-list v1.30 and FCAP-easy v1.00 flow
cytometry programs have been saved on our WEB site:
http://www.wavefront.com/~softflow
The installer files of both programs can be downloaded automatically
from the site in a self-extracting format, ready for installation.
In addition, the HPtoMac disk conversion software and the FCB
interpreter, two free software applications, are also available
on the site. HPtoMac allows you to copy files from HP-formatted
diskettes onto the Macintosh HD. The current version allows you to
set the four character file type to the desired character sequence.
FCB is an interpreter for the newly developed flow cytometry
programming
language, FCAP BASIC. FCB is a DOS application.
The FCAP-list User's Guide document has been saved on the site in
form of WWW pages:
http://www.wavefront.com/~softflow/FCLGuide
Yours Sincerely,

I also don't mind that bit of commercialism as it is
quicker
dumped in the e-mail than in the waste paper basket if I
don't want it.
I still like to find a comprehensive list of commercial
suppliers. The list between Purdue and Munich is pretty
good
but not necessarily up to date. Dako has for example their
own home page and Biorad wasn't on them the last time
either. Perhaps the best way to keep up to date is to
allow
the commercials to add their address to the pages
themselves
like Paul intends to do with the other site links.
Another thing that would be nice to have is some listing of
'useful information' like the compensation tutorial of Mark
Roederer, the lin to log conversion from Dave Coder, the
useful tips for winmdi users, how to clean laser brewster
windows .... just to name a few. It also would be nice to
get some of the commercial slides on flow principles (not
pictures of gray or beige boxes on lab-benches) on the
internet with the intention of free use. Perhaps even the
flow tutorial from Coulter might be somewhere on the net.

If you havn't seen it yet, point your browser to the new BDIS website:
http://www.bdfacs.com/
Although the site is still under construction, one can already obtain
a
wealth of information on various topics including company info,
products, technical support, etc.
Moreover, the pages load quickly and are nicely layed out so you can
efficiently get the information you need.
Check it out!

New Macintosh-based FACS Data Analysis Program! FlowJo 97

________________________________________
I am pleased to announce that the Macintosh-based FACS data analysis
program
that we developed here at Stanford is now available to everyone! The
program,
"FlowJo", is based on an entirely new paradigm of data analysis and
presentation, drawing in part on the long history of advanced
techniques
developed in the Herzenberg laboratory over the past 30 years. The
fundamental
basis of the program was presented at a poster session at ISAC in
Rimini last
year. I fimly believe that FlowJo will have a lasting and positive
impact on
how flow cytometry data is analyzed and presented.
The major advantage of this program is its novel approach to batch
analysis: no
more "keyboard macros"! Rather, it uses an intuitive click-and-drag
approach.
FlowJo presents an environment to you that is akin to a laboratory
notebook: it
saves all of the analyses (gatings and statistics that you do) in a
"workspace
document". When you load subsequent experiments, you can specify that
all of
the gating, graphs, and statistics that you have already performed
should be
applied automatically--saving enormous amounts of time.
FlowJo has many graph types, including "Probability Contour" plots,
using the
optimal contouring algorithm (which has been incorrectly implemented
in other
software packages). In addition, FlowJo allows you to perform
software
compensation, export gated data for analysis by other programs...
Creating
publication quality graphics is a snap: you can easily copy simple or
complex
graphical layous, or tables of statistics, into drawing programs or
spreadsheets.
For more information on how to download this program, visit the web
site
"http://www.treestar.com/flowjo/". (Stanford, which is a great place
for
developing new software but not necessarily for supporting it, has
licensed
FlowJo to TreeStar, a local company committed to continued support and
development).
A fully functional version of the program can be downloaded for free.
(And yes,
it reads data files from ALL manufacturers, as long it is in FCS
format!) At
this site listed above, you can also download or view a tutorial that
will show
you how powerful this program is.

________________________________________
Peter,
this has been a previous sore spot on this mailing list. Primarily,
because BD
originally marketed a program that claimed to read FCS files, but in
fact, only
reads FCS files that originate from their data collection programs!
Perhaps
they have changed the marketing claims to be less disingenuous; I
don't know.
In comparing the files that could be read by Attractors and those that
couldn't,
it was relatively easy for me to figure out what was needed. It's a
relatively
easy fix: Simply put the string "PASCAL" at the beginning of the
value for your
$SYS keyword. For existing data files, you would need to edit them
(and this
may be less easy, since you have to make sure the length of the
keyword section
remains the same if you don't want to edit the header information).
If your
existing $SYS keyword is 6 or more characters long, then just replace
the first
6 with PASCAL.
I don't know if this is still true for the most recent versions of
Attractors,
it works for a version that we got a while ago.
Once again, shame on BD for not opening up this very fine program for
general
data analysis use.

Hello All,
FYI - there is a new version 2.5 of WinMDI (Windows Multiple Document
Interface for Flow Cytometry) available from our server. There are two
flavors:
1) Windows 3.1
ftp://facs.scripps.edu/pub/pc/winmdi25.exe
2) Windows 95
ftp://facs.scripps.edu/pub/pc/wmlatest.exe
or,
http://facs.scripps.edu/software.html
This announcement is build #10 06/20/97 and has several patches and
bug fixes. In
addition, the program will now save windows bitmaps (less Copy/Paste
between
applications during analysis). Both flavors are the 16bit application
- the winhelp32
is needed for the Windows 95 version. I believe the bugs are gone, but
please
report anything bizarre in WinMDI's behavior to trotter@scripps.edu.
Many thanks to everyone that helped with suggestions & bug reports!
Joe

Hi Mark (how is life at UM?)...
I have been able to analyze CellQuest files on Winlist 3.0, WinMDI and
PC-LYSIS, once I was able to transfer them from Mac to PC format. I
have
been able to do the transfer just by copying the files to a PC floppy
disk
or PC ZIP disk from a PowerPC, then copying them to my PC. The files
generally open fine on any program able to understand FCS 2.0 files
(although unexplained chokes do occur once in a while). We also
anticipate that transfer over the ethernet should work fine, too (once
we
get it going).

The parenthetical remarks are a bit of a slur on Macintoshes, Dave is
confusing his file types:
Bona fide mac files don't need to have a resource fork, and indeed
most
data file types don't use one ( It would appear that B-D append an
empty
[redundant] resource fork to their data files, but that doesn't
matter).
The two forks are actually separate files which are accessed using
different OS/Toolbox managers, (although the Finder handles them as
one
file,) if you open a document on a mac, you get the data fork/file -
the
resource fork/file (if it exists) doesn't get in the way.
This "multiple part file type" allows you to easily separate invariant
data
and code from application-written data all in one file, allowing
self-reading data files (which have a text reading application stuffed
into
their resource fork) and application files that can contain their own
fixed
data (eg font and menu descriptions-"resources") as well as code in
their
resource forks and variable data (such as serial numbers or
preferences)
in their data forks. Which means you can move a lot of information
around
by dragging one icon, you don't need to move a .exe., a .bin, AND
a .dat or
whatever.
MacBinary files are a different species, they are a way of
encapsulating
the data and resource forks (if extant) along with Finder information
(such
as the file's creator, type, position in window, parent directory
etc),
which governs the file's appearance. The purpose of MacBinary is to
allow
you to transfer mac files to servers not aware of the mac's file
system,
and back again to a mac, without losing anything in the process. This
requires appropriate encoding and decoding at each end. Unless they
have
translators, macintosh programs can't read or write MacBinary files,
and
don't need to. The order of data storage in MacBinary is; header,
datafork, resource fork.
MacBinary files, by definition, are incompatible with the FCS file
format,
but so are .zip files. Bona fide Mac files have no problem.
On the FCS side, are there any programs that do cover all of the
permutations of any version? Are there any that actually conform yet?
Are
there any plans to certify/verify programs' compliance?

________________________________________
I asked a question regarding the above some time ago and received some
helpful replies, thanks.
It seems that the programs divide into two price categories, the
expensive
(CellQuest, MacLAS, FCAP List, and Verity's WinList for the Mac, not
yet
released) and the relatively inexpensive, namely FlowJo and FCAP Easy.
We have looked at both of the latter since our facility is primarily
PC
based and we just wanted some additional packages for us Mac users, so
can't afford to spend a lot.
We have been very impressed by FlowJo, from the point of view af
flexible
batch analysis, ease of use, well set up program and excellent support
via
the web site or email. We shall shortly be purchasing several copies
(when
we can arrange the funds, Adam!).
For others with similar requirements I would recommend also having a
look
at FCAP Easy, it has a few other functions at a similar price but I
have to
say I didn't find it easy to use and it didn't really suit our
purposes,
but others may prefer it.
The other solution of running WinMDI under Virtual PC or SoftWindows
we
also tried, and as others had warned us it was quite slow (on a
7200/120
PowerPC) and painfully slow printing. Also, while I still love the
graphics
of this program, the inability to save the workspace (FlowJo term) to
come
back to later is a major disadvantage now.

This is not a general problem of the MAC, it is simply an hurdle that
most
applications don't bother to cross. Specifically, it is no problem
with FlowJo,
which can read Cellquest-generated FCS files (as well as any other
program's FCS
files). FlowJo generates graphics in PICT format, meaning that the
graphs that
you copy to your publication programs are NOT bitmaps (unless you
desire
this--it is a preference). This means that, for instance, when you
copy a
contour plot to Canvas, each contour is a separate polygon that can be
individual colorized, or have the pen pattern changed, etc. Also,
when you copy
histograms, you can easily set the pen patterns--for instance, dashed
lines,
different fill patterns etc. You can also easily resize graphs
without losing
any resolution.
For an example of the kinds of graphs that can be generated on a
Macintosh, see
"http://www.treestar.com/flowjo/documentation/graphwindow/
graphexamples.html".

I want to thank all of those who responded to me regarding their
experiences
with DAKO antibodies and their new Medimachine. It was requested that
I
summarize the responses.
I received a total of 8 responses. 6 reported good or comparable
results to
other manufacturers with the following comments:
- Antibodies good but not optimized for flow/need tittering.
- DAKO good for providing samples of antibodies for testing
- Isotypes concentrations are not matched to the specific
antibody
concentrations so they need adjusting
- Most of the antibodies are IGG1 therefore reducing need for
many
different isotypes
- The PE appeared cleaner than other manufacturer's PE
conjugated products
- All reports were that DAKO was less expensive
2 reports of questionable results were made. One center appeared to
find that
the antibodies performed great on normals but yielded questionable
results on
clinical cases so they returned to alternative manufacturers.
As far as the Medimachine was concerned. I received two specific
responses that
were very positive. Both felt that the machine made great advances
toward a
standardized approach to cell disaggregation. One other comment also
praised it
for reducing technologist exposure to infectious samples.
Thanks again for all the comments. We have decided to give some a try
on
parallel testing.
