Intracellular calcium mobilization

Has anyone had experience with fluo-3/AM calcium detection? We have an
investigator that would like to do this on resting and activated Th1 and Th2
cells. I have never run this before and would like any input anyone has on
machine set-up (FACScan) and time course of mobilization. The paper they
gave me does not include wavelenghts for excitation or emisison for bound or
free calcium, nor does it define how they collected the sample(i.e. fixed
time vs. fixed events). As you can tell by my questions here I am a novice
at calcium detection by flow so any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
