A novel method using a differential staining fluorescence microscopy (DSFM) to track the location of enteric pathogens within mixed-species biofilms

Abstract This study developed a new tool, differential staining fluorescence microscopy (DSFM), to measure the biovolume and track the location of enteric pathogens in mixed-species biofilms which can pose a risk to food safety in beef processing facilities. DSFM was employed to examine the impact o...
