TABLE 2.

Average detection rates by CARD-FISH for DKAS 1, LKAS 2, HKAS 3 and SKAS 9 (n = 56; 7 sampling dates, four springs, two replicates per sample).

Avg. ^††	2.7	66	75	10	6	3	0.6	83	55 - 99

Percent detection of DAPI-stained cells. Between 800 and 900 DAPI-stained cells were counted per filter piece. Average values based on 8 analysis.

^†

Hybridization with a mixture of probes EUB338, EUB338 II and EUB338 III.

^‡

Difference between fraction (%) EUB338 and EUBmix.

^§

Percentage of total hybridization of probes (EUBmix, EURY806, CREN537) normalized to total DAPI counts. Numbers have been corrected by substracting NON338 counts.

^**
