| 20110136159 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VIABLE AND NONVIABLE PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC CELL QUANTITATION - A rapid method for the quantitation of various live cell types is described. This new cell fluorescence method correlates with other methods of enumerating cells such as the standard plate count, the methylene blue method and the slide viability technique. The method is particularly useful in several applications such as: a) quantitating bacteria in milk, yogurt, cheese, meat and other foods, b) quantitating yeast cells in brewing, fermentation and bread making, c) quantitating mammalian cells in research, food and clinical settings. The method is especially useful when both total and viable cell counts are required such as in the brewing industry. The method can also be employed to determine the metabolic activity of cells in a sample. The apparatus, device, and/or system used for cell quantitation is also disclosed. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110076706 | METHODS AND KITS FOR THE RAPID DETECTION OF MICROORGANISMS - The present invention provides analytical methods and related kits for detecting the presence of bacteria in a sample, determining the amount of bacteria in a sample, or determining the type of bacteria in a sample. In particular, the invention relates to devices and methods suitable for the rapid detection, quantification, or identification of bacteria in a liquid sample by measuring bacterial ATP activity. | 03-31-2011 |
