FlowCal is a library for processing and analyzing flow cytometry data in Python.
It features:
- Extraction of Flow Cytometry Standard (FCS) files into numpy array-like structures
- Traditional and non-standard gating, including automatic density-based two-dimensional gating.
- Traditional transformation functions, such as exponentiation.
- Analysis of calibration beads data, standard curve generation, and transformation to absolute units (Molecules of Equivalent Fluorophore, MEF).
- Plotting, including generation of histograms, density plots and scatter plots.
- A user-fiendly Excel UI to gate, transform, plot, and generate statistics from a list of flow cytometry samples in a simple fashion.
