The bright field microscopes and objective lenses used in each experiment are as follows6 (Tables (Tables7,7, ,88).
Measurement of absorbance of single living or dead cells (Figs. 1, ,22)
Inverted research microscope (IX71, OLYMPUS) with the 40 × or 100 × objective lens.
Other experiments.
Digital biological microscope (GR-D8T2, Shodensha, Inc.) with the 4 × or 10 × objective lens.
Conditions for microscopic observation (cell observation and absorption spectral imaging).
※ Magnification of the objective lens: Details of the objective lenses are shown in the following table (Table (Table88).
