Bioengineering and characterization of DNA-protein assemblies floating on supported membranes.

abstract：:Multiparameter flow cytometric techniques developed in our laboratories have been used for the "at-line" study of fed-batch bacterial fermentations. These fermentations were done at two scales, production (20 m(3)) and bench (5 x 10(-3) m(3)). In addition, at the bench scale, experiments were undertaken where the diff...
