Photomicrograph of Zoogloea sp. strain LCSB751. a: bright field of anaerobically grown colonies, Nile Red stained after heat fixation; b: same field observed with epifluorescence using an excitation light from a Xenon arc lamp. The beam was passed through an Optoscan monochromator (Cairn Research, Kent, UK) with 550/20 nm selected band pass. Emitted light was reflected through a 620/60 nm bandpass filter with a 565 dichroic connected to a cooled CCD camera (QImaging, Exi Blue). The images were taken using an inverted microscope (Nikon Ti) equipped with a 60× oil immersion Nikon Apo-Plan lambda objective (1.4 N.A) and an intermediate magnification of 1.5×. The scale represents 10 μm. All imaging data were collected and analysed using the OptoMorph (Cairn Research, Kent, UK) and ImageJ
