Pseudomonas and pH

[Arveprinsen]

Couldn't you find some other way e.g some kind of "affinity" chromatografy
where you can release your algea(?) without disrupting them. I do not think
that may cells like pH 3. Othervise try it out with a batch of your
un-cleaned sample. If nothing survives the answer wether to continue is
obvius
