应用流式细胞术检测毕赤酵母的细胞活性

选取两种细胞活性染色试剂二乙酸荧光素(fluoresceindiacetate,FDA)和碘化丙锭(propidiumiodide,PI),应用流式细胞术(flowcytometry,FCM)检测毕赤酵母细胞活性。比较FDA/PI双染色与PI单染色的FCM图谱,后者能够很好地将死活细胞区分开来并得到正确的比例。利用PI单染色检测发酵过程细胞活性的变化,甘油补料阶段几乎没有细胞死亡,进入甲醇补料阶段后,随着细胞密度的增加,细胞的活性不断降低,发酵88h时细胞活性仅为73.8%。

Application of Flow Cytometry in Viability Detection of Pichia pastoris Cells

Cell viability of Pichia pastoris was detected by flow cytometry (FCM) with two reagents fluorescein diacetate (FDA) and propidium iodide (PI). Compared with FDA/PI double-stained dot plots and PI single-stained dot plots,the latter could divide dead and living cells into two separate zones,and get the correct proportion. Then PI single-stained method was used to detect the change of cell viability in Pichia patoris fermentation. At glycerol batch and fed-batch phase,little dead cells were detected. At methanol fed-batch phase,cell viability decreased when cell weight increased,and was only 73.8% at 88 h.
