A fluorescent probe (rhodamine a-N-agmatine) has been used to locate cells possessing a surface protease in sputum smears. Malignant epithelial cells possess this protease and can be quickly located by this technique. These results have been confirmed by using a second fluorescent probe (9-animo acridine) for this same cell surface protease.
