    摘要: A method for rapid detection of microorganisms in a body fluid sample includes detecting the microorganisms after treatment of the sample with a lysing agent in order to dissolve sample components other than microorganisms, and staining with a fluorescent dye. The lysing agent may be part of a composition which includes a culture medium thereby providing simultaneous lysis and growth before staining. Detection is preferably accomplished by reliance on the fluorescence emitted by the dye having been properly excited by light energy.A composition suitable for use in the above-described method includes a growth medium and a lysing agent.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for conditioning samples (of e.g. milk or meat) containing fat globules and somatic cells and/or protein particles before they are subjected to fluorescence measurements in order to determine the bacterial content, as well as methods for performing the determination of bacterial content in such samples. The conditioning method involves the treatment of the samples with an ion-chelating agent, a proteolytic enzyme, detergent, and a bacteriologically specific fluorochrome such as ethidium bromide. Detergent is used in a concentration resulting in substantially no dissolution of the fat globules and the conditioned samples thus loses insignificant amounts of fat globules. The assessment of fluorescence is preferably performed in a conventional flow cytometer. As no separation of fat globules is necessary, the methods are simple and fast. The bacterial determinations have proved reliable when compared to standard methods.

    摘要: A method for the staining of the chromosomal material of plant cells so as to induce G-Bands, useful in plant genetic studies such as hydridization. G-Banding is induced by contacting living plant cells, such as those of plants of the family Gramineae, with actinomycin D, N-methyl-N'-nitroguanidine or ethidium bromide. More particularly, plant cells are treated with AMD and colchicine before fixation, prepared for viewing through a microscope by staining and then mounted on a glass slide.

    摘要: A system for identifying within a mixed population, a group of microorganisms replicating in a culture medium specific to that group, which culture medium includes a fluorescence inhibitor which the group incorporates in their nucleic acid upon replication.In one embodiment, a sample of the microorganism population is dyed with two different fluorescent dyes which are specific to nucleic acid, the fluorescent emissivity of one of the dyes being reduced or quenched by the presence of the inhibitor in the dyed nucleic acid, the fluorescent emissivity of the other of the dyes being unaffected by the presence of the inhibitor. The ratio of intensities of the fluorescent emission from the two dyes is independent of the total nucleic acid content of each microorganism, but is dependent upon the extent of incorporation of the inhibitor into the nucleic acid, so serves as a marker or identifier of a replicated organism.In another embodiment of the invention, the sample of the population is dyed with but the one quenchable dye and the dyed organisms are exposed to high intensity radiation which very rapidly bleaches the dye. From the bleaching characteristics such as the time required for the fluorescent emission to decay from its initial intensity to l/e, or from the ratio of the initial intensity of emission to the integrated emission during bleaching, one can determine independently of the total amount of nucleic acid, changes in the quantum efficiency of the dye caused by the incorporation of the inhibitor in the nucleic acid, thereby identifying replicating organisms.

    摘要: The invention relates to use of fluorescent compounds of the formula: ##STR1## where R contains between 4 and about 10 carbons and is optionally saturated or unsaturated, and is linear or branched or contains an alicyclic or aromatic ring; and the symbol .PSI. depicts the presence of the counterion used to neutralize the positive charge on the dye. The fluorescent dye dissolved in a biologically compatible solution stains a wide variety of living cells with a red nucleic acid stain after brief incubation in low concentrations of dye, without the requirement of permeabilizing reagents. Detection of the fluorescence can be used alone or in combination with measurement of other markers or properties of the cells to identify, discriminate or sort viable cells.

    摘要: A method for the detection of microorganisms e.g. bacteria in a blood sample comprises staining the microorganisms with a fluorescent dye and observing the fluorescence emission of an expanded buffy coat. The expanded buffy coat is obtained by centrifuging the stained sample in a hematocrit tube containing a float which occupies most of the buffy coat volume. The expanded buffy coat further separates into sub-layers. Intracellular microorganisms congregate in and are detected in the granulocyte sub-layer. The method may be modified to assess phagocytic activity.
