Abstract excerpt
Flow cytometry is a powerful technique for the study of single cells, and thus it is of particular utility in the study of heterogeneity in microbial populations. This review seeks to highlight the role of flow cytometric analyses in studies of microbial heterogeneity, drawing wherever possible on recently published research articles. Whilst microbial heterogeneity is well documented in both natural and...
