The NovoExpress software provides flexible fluorescence compensation
functions. Users can modify the compensation matrix manually or use the
automatic compensation function. Fluorescence compensation can be conducted
during or after sample acquisition.
NOTE
For more information on how to conduct fluorescence compensation, please refer
