Amersham doesn't seem to have their act together regarding the
ethylenediamine conjugates of the cyanine dyes. Our recent experience was
that they first said that they couldn't sell them, but then, after talking
to several layers of Supervisors, it finally turned out that they would
(although their minimum order is BIG).
Keep trying. Somebody will finally figure out that you want to give them
money....
Good luck!
