James
in reply to the question on protocols - let me direct you to 
Current Protocols in Cytometry -
http://www.wiley.com/legacy/cp/cpc/toc.htm#11
Chapter 11 "Microbial Applications" lists 16 protocols for flow 
based microbial study (I note that 2 new applications in CPC 
are not currently in the web table of contents.)

Best wishes
