摘要
Four counting methods (two flow cytometry, one Coulter principle, one microscopic) are compared for measuring cell density and viability of batch-grown yeast. All gave adequate precision in measuring total cell density with no systematic difference between methods. However, the promise of flow cytometry as a rapid means of determining both quantity and quality of a cell population is shown.
