Hello all, This is a question from one of our users. Thanks in advance.

Here it is:
---
We are trying to apply flow cytometry to analysis of marine bacteria after
FISH using Cy3 Dye labelled oligonucleotides. Is there an easy way for a
positive control, for example, using beads to which the oligonucleotide would
adsorb, so that they could be counted? Does anybody know of beads to which
DNA-oligonucleotides would readily adsorb? Is an argon 
laser tuned to emit at 514nm  suitable for Cy3 excitation?

Thanks

Markus
