I

Dr. Yannan Ouyang.
June
2004 versions of MpMicro,
Fluorescent Proteins Data, and
Fluorophores Table, are on the PUCL
Cytometry Series CD-ROM
"Microscopy 2", handed
out at the August 2004 Microscopy
Society of America (MSA) meeting
by J. Paul Robinson, Purdue
University Cytometry Lab (PUCL). The PUCL CD-ROM files
are now way out of date.
June 2005 versions are on the
Purdue University Microscopy 3
CD-ROM, distributed at MSA 2005,
Hawaii.
April 2006 versions of the files
are on the
PUCL
Cytometry Series CD-ROM
Cytometry CD9 / Microscopy CD4,
distributed at the May 2006 ISAC
meeting in Quebec City by J.
Paul robinson of Purdue
University.
Why
am I posting the Excel files?
Someday I intend to publish the
fluorescent protein and
Fluorophore Data Excel file data
in a scientific journal. However,
in the meantime, it might do some
people some good to have it
available online. If you use the
data, please cite the original
reference source. It would also be
nice to cite me for collecting the
data in one place. As for
copyright - facts and data
cannot be copyrighted, at
least here in the USA (says so in
the U.S. Constitution). Do I think
the data has value? Yes, I do. Do
I think I (or anyone else) should
charge money for it? No, I
don't.
If
you find the data of use, feel
free to drop me a note. Even
better, I welcome additional data,
either from your own research, or
that you've collected. Please
email the data to me at
geomcnamara@earthlink.net
--
please use as your subject line
something like: "Fluorophore
data for George's Excel files and
website" (you can leave out
the quotation marks). The reason
for a standard subject line is
that I receive a lot of junk mail,
and am especially leery of file
attachments (both my office and
home PC's have firewall and
antivirus). If you send me data,
please try to use the same format
as the Excel file(s). When I start
getting external contributions I
will add an extra column in the
Fluor data tables to acknowledge
sources. You are also welcome to
send me reprints (pdf's) of the
data that you've tabulated and
sent me.
The
posted data files are really just
the tip of the iceberg - or to pun
on Carl Boswell and my Fluorescent
Dye Spectra
web
site logo, Tip of the Prism.
Someday we will post some or all
of the spectra data that is on the
site. See
http://www.mcb.arizona.edu/ipc/fret/default.htm
for
the intro page to the Spectra
site.

I
added a Microscopy
Dimensions
web page to this site, trying to
count up the number of dimensions
that can be imaged in one
experiment (actually, one data
acquisition run for one replicate
of one experiment.
