Colleagues,

My question concerns the Phase-Resolved flow cytometry paper
by Jan Keij et al. in the january Cytometry.

I had thought people were routinely utilizing Hoechst/MCB to examine
glutathione and relative DNA content and had hoped to shortly do this
myself on our FACStar Plus utilizing UV excitation and collection
across a 440LP dichroic to a standard FITC filter fot the MCB and a
450/50 for the Hoechst.

Is monobromobimane much more specific for GSH and its overlapping
emission profile relative to Hoechst the central issue here?
