The Journal of Microbiological Methods - Special Issue Microbial Analysis at the Single-Cell Level Volume 42, Number 1 (September, 2000): Available On-Line This Special Issue, which I edited with Lilia Alberghina, Danilo Porro, Friedrich Srienc, and Harald Steen, contains a representative selection of work presented at a conference on "Analysis of Microbial Cells at the Single Cell Level -Why, How, When?", organized by the Microbial Physiology Section of the European Federation of Biotechnology, the Federation of European Microbiological Societies (FEMS), the Società Italiana di Microbiologia Generale e Biotecnologie Microbiche (SIMGBM), the Italian Group of Cytometry (GIC), and the Universities of Milan, and held in Como, Italy, March 25-27, 1999. Abstracts of papers presented at the Conference previously appeared in The European Journal of Histochemistry, Volume 43, Supplement 1 (1999). By agreement with Elsevier, the Publisher of The Journal of Microbiological Methods, the full text and illustrations of all articles is now available free of charge in Adobe Acrobat .pdf format at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/jmicmeth Contents Editorial: Microbial Analysis at the Single-Cell Level L.
