Dear cytometrist?
I have been given this email address by Coulter Australia, in attempt to find
a bulletin board that might assist with some technical aspects regarding my
group getting started in some aspects of cell sorting. We have just purchased
a Coulter Elite within the veterinary school and intended usage includes some
clinical as well as basic research.

I have a question with regard to live sperm sorting. Does anyone have
experience with using the new Enterprise 50 mWatt UV laser for this purpose?
The older literature cites using argon ion lasers running at about 200 mWatt
output power, but I am unaware whether the newer, smaller, (cheaper) UV laser
is suitable for this purpose.
