Mixed Probiotic Population Enumeration by Flow Cytometry

This 2023 study explores the use of flow cytometry as an alternative to traditional plate counting for enumerating probiotic bacteria, particularly in multi-strain formulations. The authors demonstrate that flow cytometry can provide greater precision, faster results, and improved recovery of viable cells, including populations that may not grow using standard culture-based methods
