SNARF on the Aria

Hi all,


We are interested in doing some intracellular pH measurements and SNARF-1 AM
seems to be the preferred dye.	According to the literature, the ideal
wavelengths to collect the two signals are at 580 and 640.  On our Aria we
have available a 575/26 or a 585/42 for the 580 signal.  We have a choice of
695/40 or 675/20 for the 640 signal.  Will we miss too much of this signal?
We could do it on the Calibur which has a long-pass 650 filter, but the
Calibur cannot do ratios of signals.  Any suggestions?	Has anyone else done
this on an Aria?  If you do this on the Calibur, how do you interpret the
data?


I looked on the archives, but was unable to find anything specific to the
Aria.  Thanks so much for your advice.
