An article entitled "Enhanced resolution of marine viruses with violet side scatter" has just been published in the journal Cytometry Part A. It is the result of collaboration with colleagues from IOCAS in Qingdao (China) as part of the IRP (CNRS-CAS) "DYF2M" (PI: G. Grégori). This article describes how a new generation of flow cytometer using side scattering (SSC) of violet photons from a 405 nm laser beam can improve the detection of marine viruses.
