Dear cytometrists. I have a technical question. Which source of red
light is nowadays more suitable for flow cytometers in terms of power,
stability (noise), life, mainteinance and prize?
Facscalibur has a red diode 635nm but I think that new LSR is provided
with an He-Ne laser 633nm.
Please, excuse me if this issue has been disscused before.
Thank you for your replay
