Abstract: The present invention relates to a flow cytometer, comprising a light source, a light beam shaping module for collimating and converging a light beam emitted from the light source so that the light beam irradiates samples to be detected, a sample generation unit, which comprises a gas-liquid transmission controlling module and a flow chamber that are interconnected, and a signal processing unit, for collecting, photoelectrically converting and analyzing the scattered beam emitted from the flow chamber. The light beam shaping module comprises a first cylindrical lens and a second cylindrical lens for respectively converging the light beams in two directions. In the present invention, the spot converged at the cell-interrogation zone of the flow chamber is flattened to avoid instability of the fluid which in turn leads to instability of the excited optical signal, and consequently the stability and reliability of the system are improved.
