Abstract A new polycation fluorescent dye (BVC-kinamycin-conjugate) has been synthesized and used to detect alive bacteria by flow cytometry. This fluorescent chromophore has the noteworthy property of being excited at the same wavelength as fluoresceinylated conjugates (488 nm) and to show a much longer emission wavelength (616 nm) than fluoresceinylated derivates (520 nm); furthermore its fluorescence intensity is not quenched at low pH in contrast with fluorescein. In such conditions, bacteria can easily be detected with cytofluorimeter equipped with a single excitation wavelength beam. The binding of fluoresceinylated lectins and antibodies onto a strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens has been studied by this method.
