Test for transformation efficiency

I am trying to use GFP as a control for my transformation efficiency.  I am
using transformed human B cells.  My problem is that I am having trouble
quantitating my flourescence.  By microscopy I can detect some flourescence
but when I try to do FACS analysis I can't detect anything.  I am using
EGFP and for the FACS analysis I am using an FITC filter.  However I detect
the same flouescence in both transformed and untransformed cells.

Help.  Any suggestions????
