Detection and discrimination of individual viruses by flow cytometry. |

| Authors: | M Hercher W Mueller H M Shapiro |
| Abstract: | A new flow cytometer with a very small observation volume has been developed to detect individual viruses with good resolution, and has been used to discriminate between two types of viral particles based on differences in their light scattering. Measurements of light scattering and fluorescence made with such an instrument can provide a basis for quantitative analysis and sorting of viruses and other particles in the micron and submicron size range. |
