Gating.
Gating is in essence electronic window that sets upper
and lower limits on the type and amount of material
that passes through.
It is used to separate a sub-population from
heterogeneous population.
It permits very specific questions to be asked about a
particular population.

APPLICATION
Immunophenotyping
Is the termed used in the identification of cells by
labeling with monoclonal antibodies identified as
cluster designations (CD)
Intrinsic parameters:
Cell size & Granularity.
Extrinsic parameters:
Surface Antigens
Multi-parametric FCM
In the multi-parameter approach more than one
feature of the same cell is measured, such as three
color surface and cytoplasmic staining in conjunction
with the cellular DNA content
leukemia and lymphoma.
Distinction of myeloid leukemia from
lymphatic can be precisely determined by
the analysis of surface and cytoplasmic
antigens.
