Zusammenfassung: | Respiration is widely used for evaluation of the metabolic capabilities or physiological state of the microbial culture. This chapter describes novel approaches for characterization of respiration at a single cell level: (1) flow cytometry-based redox sensing (FCRS) of actively metabolizing microbes; (2) respiration response imaging (RRI) for real-time detection of substrate stimulated redox responses of individual cells; (3) respiration detection system: microobservation chamber (RDS: MC), a single cell analysis system for carrying out the physiological and genomic profiling of cells capable of respiring C
1 compounds. The techniques are suitable for description of physiological heterogeneity among cells in a single microbial population and could be used to characterize distribution of methylotrophic ability among microbial cells in the natural environmental samples. |
