Flow cytometry is a classical method for analyzing human peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets. This study aims to explore a new combination of antibody and labeled fluorescein for detecting lymphocyte subsets by comparing the effects of different combinations of antibody and labeled fluorescein in flow cytometry. We conducted a prospective study and enrolled 362 healthy patients undergoing physical examination in the medical examination center of the third hospital of hebei medical university. Venous blood was drawn from volunteers at the same time in the morning and divided into 3 tubes (Tube A, Tube B and Tube C). T lymphocytes were detected by 3-colors method (CD4-FITC/CD8-PE/CD3-PC5) in Tube A, B lymphocytes were detected by 2-colors method (CD19-FITC/CD3-PE) in Tube B, and T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes were detected by 4-colors method (CD4-FITC/CD8-PE/CD3-PC5/CD19-FITC) in Tube C. The repeatability and accuracy of the test scheme for Tube C shall not be inferior to that of Tube A and Tube B. There were no significant difference in the results of CD3 + and CD4+/CD8 + between Tube A and C, as well as in the results of CD3 + and CD19 + between Tube B and C. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the test results of a and C and B and C were highly correlated. The 4-colors method (CD4-FITC/CD8-PE/CD3-PC5/CD19-FITC) can detect T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes at the same time, reduce the use of fluorescence channels and save the detection cost, which is worthy of recommendation.

D011446	Prospective Studies	Observation of a population for a sufficient number of persons over a sufficient number of years to generate incidence or mortality rates subsequent to the selection of the study group.	Prospective Study,Studies, Prospective,Study, Prospective
D005434	Flow Cytometry	Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
