Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for measuring the number of viable bacteria in a sample and a measurement apparatus therefor, and more specifically, by staining the bacteria in a sample with two kinds of fluorescent dyes,
- the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for measuring the number of viable bacteria that can be easily distinguished from contaminants such as dead bacteria and dust.
- Fluorescein diacetate and propidium iodide are used as fluorescent dyes for dyeing bacteria, and the fungi are double-stained with these fluorescent dyes, and the dyed fungi are irradiated with excitation light to give fluorescein diacetate Fluorescence emission at a specific wavelength emitted by viable bacterial cells stained with, and fluorescence emission at a specific wavelength emitted by dead bacterial cells stained with propidium iodide, and detecting the number of fluorescent light emission and viable cell death.
- a method for measuring the number of fungal cells is described.
- Patent Document 2 includes a first step of staining the whole fungus as a specimen with a fluorescent reagent that fluoresces only dead bacteria cells, and counting the number of dead bacteria cells that have emitted fluorescence; The number measured in the second step of measuring the number of dead cells that fluoresced after sterilizing the entire fungus to be tested and then staining the entire sterilized fungus again with the fluorescent reagent. By measuring the number of viable cells and dead cells. A microorganism measuring method is disclosed.
- Patent Document 3 discloses the intensity of fluorescence emitted from a measurement sample on which a nucleic acid fluorescent stain that stains only dead cells acts, the treatment that causes the nucleic acid fluorescent stain to act, and damages the cell membrane.
- a method for measuring the number of viable cells and Z or cell viability characterized by measuring the intensity of the fluorescence emitted from the treated measurement sample and comparing both intensities, is disclosed.
