| rapid and sensitive quantification of vibrio cholerae and vibrio mimicus cells in water samples by use of catalyzed reporter deposition fluorescence in situ hybridization combined with solid-phase cytometry. | a new protocol for rapid, specific, and sensitive cell-based quantification of vibrio cholerae/vibrio mimicus in water samples was developed. the protocol is based on catalyzed reporter deposition fluorescence in situ hybridization (card-fish) in combination with solid-phase cytometry. for pure cultures, we were able to quantify down to 6 v. cholerae cells on one membrane with a relative precision of 39% and down to 12 cells with a relative precision of 17% after hybridization with the horseradi ... | 2012 | 22885749 |
| development of a selective and differential medium for capsulated lactococcus garvieae. | a selective and differential medium termed 'lg agar' was developed for the isolation and presumptive identification of lactococcus garvieae that results in black colonies with red halos. in this study, all 14 strains of l. garvieae and only 9 of the 148 strains representing 38 other species were able to grow on the lg agar. the nine viable strains on lg agar plates (including enterococcus faecalis, enterococcus faecium, lactococcus lactis, vibrio fluvialis, vibrio furnissii, vibrio mimicus and v ... | 2014 | 24033791 |
