A Possible Flow Cytometry-Based Viability and Vitality Assessment Protocol for Pathogenic Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 Postexposure to Simulated Gastric Fluid

During the intake of contaminated water, for diarrheal disease to occur, Vibrio cholerae must survive through the bactericidal digestive secretion of gastric fluid during passage through the stomach. Determining the viability of these bacteria is challenging, with the standard cultivation methods fo...
