ABSTRACT:
A microorganism double-stained with appropriate fluorescent reagents is dropped onto a light permeable plate or passed through a micro-tube and irradiated with excitation light. As a result, the fluorescent reagents absorb the excitation light and thus the microorganism fluoresces. This fluorescence is detected by a CCD camera, a photodiode or a multiplier photo-tube and subjected to image-processing, thereby determining the amount and type of the microorganism and judging whether it has vital cells or dead cells.
