We are sorting large cells and need something in that size range to calibrate the instrument. Many thanks, Tobias -- _ ____ __ ____ / \ / / \ / \ \ Tobias I.

As far I can tell, introgen's beads top our at 15 µm. Well that might be ok, but I was hoping to find 25 µm (it is our average cell diameter). Sorry I didn't make that clear (or perhaps there is a product I missed on their web page amid all of the smaller beads?). As ever Tobias At 1:46 PM -0400 3/27/12, Gary G.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Somewhat related to this last posting, can anyone recommend a source of small (50 nm diameter or less) multi-color (at least two distinct emission spectra) fluorescent microspheres? Commercial vendors may also contact me directly offline. Thank you.
