    A new standard file format for flow cytometry data addresses increasing complexity and instrument diversity. This format ensures data compatibility and easier sharing across different systems and institutions.

    Area of Science:

    • Biotechnology
    • Computational Biology
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • Growing complexity in multiparameter flow cytometry data collection and analysis.
    • Proliferation of diverse flow cytometer instruments necessitates data compatibility.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • Propose a standardized file format for all flow cytometric data.
    • Facilitate data sharing and analysis across different instruments and institutions.

    Main Methods:

    • Implementation of a three-segment file structure: TEXT, DATA, and ANALYSIS.
    • Use of KEYWORDS in TEXT and ANALYSIS segments for data field definition.
    • ASCII encoding for TEXT, with flexible bit resolution for DATA segment.

    Main Results:
