OPTICAL TRAPPING AND FLUORESCENCE DETECTION IN LAMINAR-FLOW STREAMS
1995
An optical laser trap with fluorescence excitation/emission capability has been integrated in a flow cytometric geometry for the study of microparticle confinement and off‐axis fluorescence detection in laminar flow streams. Measurements of particle escape velocity, trapping efficiency, and fluorescence intensity are presented for 2 μm diameter dye‐tagged latex microspheres in laminar flow streams having velocities of up to 12 mm/s. Experimental results are compared with theoretical values for flow velocity and fluorescence intensity and found to be in excellent agreement.
