Figure 1. Fluorescence activated cell sorting strategy to acquire EGFP expressing Lgr5+ ISCs. Initially gates were applied using side scatter and forward scatter parameters to exclude debris and doublet cells. Subsequent gating allowed removal of dead cells and acquisition of EGFP positive ISCs for further processing.
