1. In a cytometer system of the type in which a stream containing sample particles flows past a light beam and particles, which fluoresce or are tagged to fluoresce responsive to said light, emit light and a detector receives said emitted light and generates an output signal which includes a base value representative of background and electronic noise and peaks representative of said particles as they pass through said light beam, and a signal processing means including a processor for receiving said output signal and configured to generate a base value representative of said background and electronic noise and for setting a threshold value above said base value for thereafter generating signals responsive only to said emitted light.
