In this video, we quantify intracellular and extracellular Listeria monocytogenes, an intracellular pathogenic bacteria, following their infection of cultured macrophages in vitro using flow cytometry.

Protocol

1. Sampling Processing and Analysis of Intracellular and Emergent Lm by Flow Cytometry (FCM) Prepare mouse macrophage-like cell line RAW 264.7 in DMEM tissue culture media supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (henceforth referred to as DMEM/FCS) using a 125 mL flask and a tissue culture incubator maintained at 37 °C/5% CO2. Adjust cells to 1 x 106 cells/mL and add 1 mL (1 x 106 cells) to wells of a 6-well tissue culture dish. Prepare …
