High background fluorescence and unspecific staining hampered the epifluorescence enumeration of bacteria in 45% of the tested soil and sediment samples with 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and polycarbonate membrane filters. These problems of the determination of total cell counts can be circumvented by using green fluorescent high-affinity nucleic acid dyes and aluminum oxide membrane filters. Due to the bright staining of cells, we recommend SYBR Green II as dye.
高背景荧光和非特异性染色妨碍了在45%的经测试土壤和沉积物样本中,使用4',6-二脒基-2-苯基吲哚(DAPI)和聚碳酸酯膜过滤器对细菌进行落射荧光计数。通过使用绿色荧光高亲和力核酸染料和氧化铝膜过滤器,可以规避总细胞数测定中的这些问题。由于细胞染色明亮,我们推荐使用SYBR Green II作为染料。
