The video documentaries included on this disc provide insights into what was taking place during the early years of flow cytometry, as well as information on the chrononology of events. Many of the segments come from the Smithsonian Archives, and we gratefully acknowledge the work of Ramundas Kondratas and his team of documentarians there. We also appreciate the work of Elena Holden and Louis Kamentsky, and the team at the CompuCyte Corporation, who developed the presentation of Louis Kamentsky on the history of developments in cytometry.

We also thank Sony DADC for their enthusiastic support and technical assistance with this project. They have facilitated our venture into DVD-video production.
