Hi FlowCytonauts, I ran into trouble finding the 458nm laser line of our Innova Spectrum70 Laser on our FACSVantage SE for ECFP analysis. Actually I can tune to 6 lines below the very strong 488nm line. (UV is probably not visible) The Innova handbook says: 70C-Spectrum: 488.0: 0.25Watt; 476.5: 0.10 472.2: ---- 465.8: ---- 457.9: 0.03 Multiline UV: 0.05 So which one is the 458 ?. The first visible one ? Unfortunately I currently have no strong ECFP expressing cell line for fishing in the dark. Are there any beads that are somewhat specific for that laserline ? I tried Sphero-Yellow bright with not much success... I am running the laser as secondary laser (488 primary, outsplitted UV as laser3). I used a 649LP filter and collected the reflected light with a special 473/19 filter (as discussed previously in that group). Any help is greatly appreciated ... /Alex -- --Received on Thu Mar 10 15:18:00 2005
