Comparison of flow cytometric cell counts of aplastidic protists counted live and with two cryoprotectants. Triplicate samples of coastal Maine water were run live and stained with either Lysotracker (LT) or SYBR green. Replicate samples were stored with the cryoprotectants glycine betaine (GBe) or glycerol – TE (Gly-TE) at −80 °C and then stained with SYBR green before enumeration. Each replicate was run with the flow cytometer triggered by green fluorescence (FL1) or by side scatter (SSC). Errors bars show standard deviations of triplicate samples.
