Springtime Greetings,

We are looking into laser configuration for a new cytometer and would like
to know if anyone has found an alternative to the dye laser for excitation of
Texas Red. I have noticed that the Coherent Spectrum laser puts out about
150mW of 569nm. Would this be sufficient to excite Texas Red? If you have
found a dye head alternative, please include the model of cytometer that you
are using, and laser power output info as well. Thanks, in anticipation.
