Hi Everyone,

I could use a tad bit o' help here:

I've been using with great success for some time now Criterion Sciences
Diluent 2 as a sheath fluid for viable cell sorting.  Well, come time to order
some more, I find that VWR Scientific (my supplier) was no longer carrying it.
 I cannot find Criterion Sciences on the Web either.  I'm a little baffled. 
They and their "diluent 2" still exist, don't they?  Anyone know?

This seems like a good time to ask:  what is the commercial sheath fluid
(again, for viable cell sorting) of choice nowadays, that you all use?  Could
you let me know who, what and roughly how much?  I am preparing my own for the
time being, but I much prefer the commercial sheath as it leads to cramps in
my day of lesser frequency.

Many thanks,
