Epifluorescence microscopy visualization of the strains B. licheniformis 12B (A) and H. meridiana 18B (B) after 10 minutes of incubation in the Bannock brines, stained with Propidium iodide (red) and SybrGreen (green). A1, B1: visualisation at Propidium iodide excitation/emission wavelength (494/617 nm) of the cells with damaged cell wall. A2, B2: visualisation at SybrGreen I excitation/emission wavelength (494/519 nm) of the totality of the cells.
