Fluorescence Microscopy REPLY

[Stephen Knight]

I would also add Molecular Probes to your contact list 
at http://www.probes.com . In addition to a number of fluorochromes and 
fluorescent  probes they carry Omega brand light filters to fit most of 
the microscopes being used in the US.  There are also several good books 
on fluorescent microscopy that I can recommend; e-mail if you'd like to 
follow up on that.  GFP probe is not much different than working with 
say FITC conjugated 2' antibody in a microscopy specimen. The better 
that  you can control your system the better the final image will be. 
Good luck.
