Generation of SERS flow cytometry reference spectra. To generate SERS reference spectra for use in spectral unmixing, light scatter gating (A) is used to identify single beads stained with SERS tag, allowing the spectra of individual beads to be inspected (B). The total integrated spectral emission can then be gated to remove outliers (C) and the average spectra determined (D).
