Significance of predation by protists in aquatic microbial food webs
Work on predation by protists is being facilitated by methodological advances, e.g., molecular genetic analysis of protistan diversity and application of flow cytometry to study population growth and feeding rates.

The relative rates of uptake of fluorescence-labeled bacteria (FLB), of various cell sizes and cell types, by natural assemblages of flagellates and ciliates in estuarine water is determined.

Bacterivory and herbivory: Key roles of phagotrophic protists in pelagic food webs
It is known that a significant fate of bacterioplankton production is grazing by < 20-µm-sized flagellates, which indicates that bacterivores may be directly cropping bacterial production rather than simply the standing stock of bacterial cells.

The redox dye 5-cyano-2,3-ditolyl tetrazolium chloride (CTC) is used in aquatic sciences as a vital stain for enumeration of respiring bacteria in situ. Questions concerning its efficacy have been…
