Histograms are an integral aspect of flow cytometry data analysis, yet even the most die-hard flow fan will tell you that after analyzing their 50th histogram it loses some of its luster. FCS Express packs in many features to speed up the time it takes you to analyze data so you can get on to more important things.


With FCS Express, you can instantly change the parameter you are viewing by clicking the mouse on the axis label or by pressing the number corresponding to the parameter you wish to view. No more wading through a myriad of windows in order to do simple things!

Plus, you can zoom in to magnify any section you desire:



Another feature of FCS Express is that all overlays are "live". This means that you can change the parameters of the overlays, and even change their gating regions while they are displayed on the screen, in order to easily view the data in different ways. Complete statistics are given for every overlay. FCS Express also allows you to add multiple overlays at once. This means that if you want the mean of parameter one from 30 files, simply open the first file as a histogram, add the other 29 overlays in one shot and then FCS Express will give you the means of all 30 histograms. A genuine time saver!

All aspects of the histogram are under your control. You can control the background, fonts, titles and legends to obtain any effect you desire.



Multiple files can be added onto one histogram plot as overlays and displayed in a truly unique ways. Stacked histograms allow visualization of two histograms side by side while changing the histogram parameters to display the plot in 3D mode and filling in the area under each overlay, you can turn an ordinary histogram into a visually stimulating work of art!
