Hi,
	Just wondering if anyone has experience assessing the specific oxidation
of 2,7-diaminofluorene (DAF) by pseudoperoxidase activity of hemoglobin
(Hb)to generate fluorene blue (FB) by flow cytometry?
	There seems to numerous plate reader based assays i.e. colourimetric, but
I haven't been able to find out if the fluorene blue is at all fluorescent.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks
