In-Depth Information
Direct fluorescence staining
(e.g. nucleic acid/
protein stains such as
DAPI, acradine orange,
TRITC etc.)
Culture-independent,
inexpensive, quantitative
Possible binding of cells/stain to
extracellular material can make
quantification difficult, careful
optimization may be required for
effective staining, detection of
eukaryotic cells
