The influence of AHLs on morphology of S. cerevisiae stressed by 8% ethanol detected by flow cytometry. FSC (x-axis) is an indicator of size, SSC (y-axis) is an indicator of granularity, and count (y-axis) indicates cell number. 2 μM C12-HSL and 2 μM 3OC6-HSL were used in this test; the cells only exposed to 8% ethanol were as the control. The cells were incubated for 3 days before measured by flow cytometry
