Calibration description and purpose
Pass Criteria
Dye
• The software extracts a spectral profile for each dye standard, then
produces a set of spectral profiles plotted as fluorescence vs filter.
• The software uses calibration data to characterize and distinguish the
individual contribution of each dye in the total fluorescence signals
collected by the instrument.
Dye spectra peak within the same
filter as their group.
