Thanks for the references. I assume the user to whom you refer is doing
the F-actin by flow? What are the advantages of NBD over FITC?
I know FITC is very pH sensitive around neutrality; maybe NBD isn't?
Is NBD as bright as FITC? Can it be excited with argon 488?
Do you have a preferred procedure for permeabilization, stabilization and
staining? In the literature, we've seen sucrose/Mg/triton,
paraformaldehyde with lysolecithin, and maleimidobenzoyl
N-hydroxysuccinimide ester/triton + formladehyde; hope we don't need to
characterize all three ourselves.
