A new technique is described for evaluating bacterial cell distribution in fecal samples. Spatial relationships of cells within an area rather than number of cells per unit volume or weight are measured by this technique. Measurements of cell distribution by this method indicated that bacteria occurred in freshly voided swine feces as pure, discrete colonies rather than as single cells distributed randomly or uniformly throughout the sample.
描述了一种评估粪便样本中细菌细胞分布的新技术。该技术测量的是一个区域内细胞的空间关系,而非每单位体积或重量的细胞数量。通过这种方法对细胞分布进行的测量表明,在新排出的猪粪便中,细菌以纯净、离散的菌落形式存在,而不是以随机或均匀分布于整个样本中的单个细胞形式存在。
