Morphological integrity of Halobacterium salinarum in NaCl solutions. Cells were grown in 4.3 M NaCl and 81 mM MgSO4 and dialyzed against a solution of 81 mM MgSO4. a Plot of the relative amount of intact, lysed, and semi-lysed cells with respect to the remaining NaCl concentration after dialysis. Analysis of 60 microscopic frames containing 8139 cells in total. Curve fits were calculated using Igor Pro 6.3 (WaveMetrics®). b Selected cells illustrating intact, lysed, and semi-lysed states (from top to bottom) in the light microscope (DIC imaging)
