1. A method of identifying sample components comprising:

  • (a) obtaining a biological sample;

    (b) labeling said sample with one or more fluorophores;

    (c) separating components of said sample; and

    (d) detecting said sample components with a device wherein said device comprises;

    one or more lasers configured to emit two or more excitation lines, each excitation line having a different excitation wavelength;

    a timing circuit coupled to the one or more lasers and configured to fire the two or more excitation lines sequentially according to a timing program to produce time-correlated fluorescence emission signals from the sample; and

    a non-dispersive detector positioned to collect the time-correlated fluorescence emission signals;

    wherein said detector collects time correlated data from said sample comprising fluorescent emissions of the sample as a result of irradiation by the one or more excitation lines.
