Hi All,
	I looked around but can't find any references to....
Whether the level fluorescence of GFP is related to the temperature at
which it is exposed to an appropriate light source?
My query is related to the lack of detectable GFP signal by flow cytometry,
from a GFP + transgenic mouse (the skin on the tail glows for example) bone
marrow cells. If the temperature is important, then in the mammalian system
the GFP may not be suitbale for the researchers needs.

Thanks in advance,
Geoff
