Fluorescense quenching

[Mark E. Berres]

Does anyone have any knowledge concerning the maximum
amount of fluorescense an ABI 377 can detect and still
maintain a linear relationship between the mass of
fluorophore labelled DNA and fluorescense intensity?

In my experience, it seems to be somewhere around 4100
(rfu) but this is only empirical.

			Thanks!
