Abstract
Although spectral flow cytometry has become a ubiquitous tool for cell analysis, the use of spectral cytometry on cell sorters requires additional considerations arising from the unique requirements of sorting workflows. Here, we show that care should be taken when ascertaining the purity of a sort on a spectral cell sorter, as the mismatch of buffers used for initial sample suspension and the buffers used for sort collection can affect the unmixing of the data, potentially giving rise to erroneous purity check results.
