questions about bacterial staining
Hi there,
I'm interested in using mass cytometry to distinguish between different serotypes of a particular bacterial strain. Leipold et al. (2011) described problems with using Ir as a diagnostic signal for bacterial staining and instead validated the use of di-N-dodecylamine lanthanide as an alternative. Can this be bought or must it be synthesized? Has anybody tried another signal?
Thanks,
Anjali
