Fig. 11.12. The use of gel microdroplets and flow cytometry to assay drug sensitivity of bacterial cells. The figure shows side scatter and green fluorescence contour plots of gel microdroplets (GMDs) containing E. coli cells that have been stained with fluorescein isothiocyanate for total protein. The microdroplets have been analyzed in the flow cytometer either at time 0 or 2 h after incubation in control medium (left plots) or medium containing penicillin (right plots). A model system was created by mixing two strains of bacteria (susceptible or resistant to penicillin). The data show that a small subpopulation of resistant cells could be detected within 2 h because of its rapid growth in comparison to susceptible cells. From Weaver et al. (1991).

This section incorporates the unpublished work of Palmer and Weaver subsequently the fatigue analysis was included as an integral part of the FMP Shaft Design Guide which Palmer and Weaver compiled. Results are quoted, for brevity the reader is referred to references dealing with the Distortion Energy Theory of Failure (also called deviatoric stress, octahedral, von Mises, or shear strain) for a complete analysis.
