Determination of Pseudomonas Putida Live Cells with Classic Cultivation and Staining with “live/dead Baclight Bacterial Viability Kit”
نویسندگان
چکیده
Periodic culture of Pseudomonas putida strain ATCC 12633=NBPMCC1090 was investigated in a 24 h experiment for sensitivity to zinc oxide thin films constructed under different conditions. The growth of bacteria was followed at every three hours and three methods were used to determine live cells. Optical density, cultivation and microscopic methods were applied and compared. To distinguish active and inactive cells LIVE/DEAD BacLight Bacterial Viability Kit staining was compared with classical cultivation methods. Bacterial quantity determinated on nutrient media, appear higher than those of live cells counted on epifluorescent microscope.

Applicability of LIVE/DEAD BacLight Stain with Glutaraldehyde Fixation for the Measurement of Bacterial Cell Concentration and Viability in the Air
Data on the concentration and viability of microorganisms in the atmosphere provide crucial information with regard to their dispersion, roles in environmental changes, and effects on ecosystems. In this study, we investigated the application of the LIVE/DEAD BacLightTM Bacterial Viability Kit (BacLight stain) with regard to the enumeration of viable and non-viable bacterial cells in the air, w...
متن کاملNew methodology for viability testing in environmental samples.
Environmental samples can be complex and are comprised of microorganisms and a matrix of decaying organic matter as well as an inorganic phase such as sand or precipitated material (waste water, sludge, soils, etc.). Nucleic acid dyes have recently been developed to address the growing need for environmental analyses (cell staining, counting, viability testing and specific organism identificati...

Complement-mediated killing of bacteria was monitored by flow cytometric, luminometric, and conventional plate counting methods. A flow cytometric determination of bacterial viability was carried out by using dual staining with a LIVE/DEAD BacLight bacterial viability kit. In addition to the viable cell population, several other populations emerged in the fluorescence histogram, and there was a...

The viability of the human probiotic strains Lactobacillus paracasei NFBC 338 and Bifidobacterium sp. strain UCC 35612 in reconstituted skim milk was assessed by confocal scanning laser microscopy using the LIVE/DEAD BacLight viability stain. The technique was rapid (<30 min) and clearly differentiated live from heat-killed bacteria. The microscopic enumeration of various proportions of viable ...

This study shows that a short-term respirometric measurement based on the rate of oxygen uptake needed to oxidize glucose is a reliable and fast method to assess biocide efficacy against P. fluorescens cells. Respiratory activity using oxygen consumption rate, the determination of viable and nonviable cells using Live/Dead BacLight kit and colony formation units (CFU), were compared as indicato...
