Thank you both; I appreciate the advice. Great to know I have a couple of options.
Enjoy your weekends.

Hello Neil
As Sheng mentioned you can use the spectral imaging approach. Or you can use the unlabeled cells to collect the signal to use for background subtraction. That will take care. The background subtraction should remove any autofluorescence or detector noise involved in fluorescence imaging.
Hope this helps.

Then, it would be better to use spectral FRET. Measure the reference spectrum of the autofluorescence from unlabeled sample. Use linear unmixing to remove autofluorescence.

Hi all, I hope the science treats you well.
I was wondering if anybody's had any experience with autofluorescence when using PFRET, or PeriFRET as I like to call it. I understand that autofluorescence is not accounted for in the algorithm?
Peri, I hope all is well with you. Can I ask for some pointers on how think about the system if autofluorescence is the mix?
Thanks in advance for your time.
Neil
