Abstract

Flow cytometry enables the analysis of cells by labeling them with fluorescent probes. We describe a novel flow cytometric approach permitting reliable analysis of Coxiella (C.) burnetii-infected cells. The method quantifies infection-forming units (IFUs) in a dose-dependent manner and allows for the specific detection of infection/replication-competent coxiella in cell cultures.
