Effect of vortex mixing on the mean ThT fluorescence of cells expressing adhesins^a

Expressed adhesin	Cell fluorescence		Ratio
	Quiescent	Vortex mixed
None (EV)	142	161	1.13
ΔFLO11	987	994	1.01
FLO11	864	1,128	1.31
FLO1	889	1,367	1.55

^aCells of each type were vortex mixed for 5 min at 2,500 rpm or left quiescent for 5 min. The cells were then stained with 500 nM ThT and assayed by flow cytometry.
