| Abstract |
Immunofluorescence microscopy is a widely used laboratory method which allows detection and visualization of specific antigens. The method employs the specificity of antibodies to deliver fluorophore to a specific target and then visualize it with a microscope. The power of the technique is that it requires relatively little manipulation and relatively few bacterial cells, enabling the detection of antigen expression where other methods cannot, such as during an actual infection in an animal. Here, we apply the method to follow antigen expression on the surface of MRSA cells over time in in vivo infection models. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 October 2013.
All research outputs
#18,349,805
of 22,725,280 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#7,858
of 13,085 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#229,271
of 305,147 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#293
of 594 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,725,280 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,085 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 305,147 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 594 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
