iCoreDrop extra files

Supporting files for iCoreDrop - Development of an immune monitoring assay with open biomarker channels using optimal spectral cytometry assay practices.
Conclusion:
Supporting files for iCoreDrop - High assay precision is achievable on the 5-laser Cytek Aurora for a 36-color assay utilizing flexible drop in channels. A thorough interrogation of single stain controls and unmixing setup was required to achieve this result. Supporting files for iCoreDrop - QC beads were run daily to maintain instrument performance. Similarity Indices were tracked over time for stock antibody reagents and dilutions to assess stability. Extensive bead vs cells checks were performed to determine optimal reference (single stain) controls. FMM controls were used to QC the gating strategy. Samples were run in triplicate during assay performance characterization.
