sep	character string specifying how channel descriptions should be parsed. E.g., if pData(x)$desc contains both channel and antigens formatted as, 155Gd_CD73, descriptions will be split according to sep and everything after the first sep will be used as the antigen name (here, CD73).

Value

• name: the parameter name as extracted from the input flowFrame,

• desc: the parameter description as extracted from the input flowFrame,

• antigen: the targeted protein markers, and
