Flow Cytometry Part 3: Improving Signal-to-Noise Ratio in Flow Cytometer Optics

Although aspheric lenses may appear more complex than spherical lenses, a single asphere has the capability to substitute several spherical lenses within an optical assembly. This substitution results in a final system that is simpler, more compact, and lighter in weight.
