| Viability and Biomass of Micrococcus luteus DE2008 at Different Salinity Concentrations Determined by Specific Fluorochromes and CLSM-Image Analysis. | In previous studies, our group developed a method based on Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy and Image Analysis (CLSM-IA) to analyze the diversity and biomass of cyanobacteria in microbial mats. However, this method cannot be applied to heterotrophic microorganisms, as these do not have autofluorescence. In this article, we present a method that combines CLSM-IA and Hoechst 33342 and SYTOX Green fluorochromes (FLU-CLSM-IA) to determine the viability and biomass of Micrococcus luteus DE2008, iso ... | 2012 | 22006073 |
