Improved identification of methanogenic bacteria by fluorescence microscopy
Abstract
Methanogenic bacteria can be tentatively identified by fluorescence microscopy. This technique was improved by carefully selecting a series of excitation and barrier filters that matched the excitation and emission spectra of some unique coenzymes viz., F420 and F350, in methanogenic bacteria.
