Viability again

Hi All,
I can't get onto the Purdue site to search the archive at the
moment, so I'll ask here....

Q1:
I've seen mention of TO-PRO-3 as a dead-cell stain; does TOTO-3
behave similarly?
Q1a: Have either of these been compared to PI in presence of
Paraformaldehyde fixation?

Q2:
Ethidium Bromide has some limitations as a dead-cell stain in
that it gets into live cells more readily than PI and leaks out
more quickly; does Ethidium Monoazide have the same problems?

Q3:
Is there an analogue of EMA that is excited by 633 or 635 laser?

Much Thanks, Joseph.
