Abstract
A method of evaluating performance of a flow cytometer configured to use a combination of two or more types of calibration particles having different morphologies from each other, includes a first classification step of classifying the calibration particles from each other based on a first optical characteristic by the flow cytometer which is an evaluation target, a second classification step of classifying the calibration particles from each other based on a second optical characteristic which is classifiable at a spatial resolution lower than a spatial resolution at which the first optical characteristic is classified, and the evaluation step of evaluating one or both of particle classification performance and a resolution of the flow cytometer based on a first classification result assessed in the first classification step and a second classification result assessed in the second classification step.
