Detection of bacteriophage-infected cells of Lactococcus lactis by using flow cytometry

Article Abstract:

A fast and efficient method for early detection of phage-infected Lactococcus lactis based on flow cytometric detection of cells with low-density cell walls is demonstrated. The method increases the chance of successful intervention in the fermentation process as it can be performed in real time.

Detection and analysis of transpositionally active head-to-tail dimers in three additional Escherichia coli IS elements

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on Escherichia coli insertion elements IS3, IS150 and IS186. The authors demonstrate that these elements can produce transpositionally active heat-to-tail dimers with the structure and transpositional activity similar to the dimers of IS2, IS21 and IS30.

Precise determinations of C and D periods by flow cytometry in Escherichia coli K-12 and B/r

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on Escherichia coli K-12 strains. The authors report that C and D cell cycle periods of these strains have been determined via computer simulations of DNA histograms.
