Here we introduce a novel method to stain halophiles with MitoTracker fluorescent dyes in their growth medium. The method is based on membrane-potential sensitive dyes, which were originally used to label mitochondria in eukaryotic cells. We demonstrate that these fluorescent dyes provide high staining efficiency and are beneficial for multi-staining purposes due to the spectral range covered (from orange to deep red). In contrast with other fluorescent dyes used so far, MitoTracker does not affect growth rate, and remains in cells after several washing steps and several generations in cell culture. The suggested dyes were tested on three archaeal (Hbt. salinarum, Haloferax sp., Halorubrum sp.) and two bacterial (Salicola sp., Halomonas sp.) strains of halophilic microorganisms. The new staining approach provides new insights into biology of Hbt. salinarum. We demonstrated the interconversion of rod-shaped cells of Hbt. salinarium to spheroplasts and submicron-sized spheres, as well as the cytoplasmic integrity of giant rod Hbt. salinarum species. By expanding the variety of tools available for halophile detection, MitoTracker dyes overcome long-standing limitations in fluorescence microscopy studies of halophiles. 000843861 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-553$$a553 - Physical Basis of Diseases (POF3-553)$$cPOF3-553$$fPOF III$$x0 000843861 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aBogorodskiy, Andrey$$b1 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aMishin, Alexey$$b2 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aOkhrimenko, Ivan$$b3 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)165798$$aGushchin, Ivan$$b4 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aKalenov, Sergei$$b5 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aDencher, Norbert A.$$b6 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)136837$$aFahlke, Christoph$$b7$$ufzj 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)131957$$aBüldt, Georg$$b8 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)131964$$aGordeliy, Valentin$$b9$$ufzj 000843861 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)131924$$aGensch, Thomas$$b10$$ufzj 000843861 7001_ $$00000-0003-4398-9712$$aBorshchevskiy, Valentin$$b11$$eCorresponding author 000843861 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2615211-3$$a10.1038/s41598-018-20839-7$$gVol. 8, no. 1, p. 2549$$n1$$p2549$$tScientific reports$$v8$$x2045-2322$$y2018 000843861 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/843861/files/s41598-018-20839-7.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000843861 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/843861/files/s41598-018-20839-7.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yOpenAccess 000843861 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/843861/files/s41598-018-20839-7.jpg?subformat=icon-1440$$xicon-1440$$yOpenAccess 000843861 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/843861/files/s41598-018-20839-7.jpg?subformat=icon-180$$xicon-180$$yOpenAccess 000843861 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/843861/files/s41598-018-20839-7.jpg?subformat=icon-640$$xicon-640$$yOpenAccess 000843861 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/843861/files/s41598-018-20839-7.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000843861 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:843861$$pdnbdelivery$$pdriver$$pVDB$$popen_access$$popenaire 000843861 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)136837$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b7$$kFZJ 000843861 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)131964$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b9$$kFZJ 000843861 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)131924$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b10$$kFZJ 000843861 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-553$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-550$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-500$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bKey Technologies$$lBioSoft – Fundamentals for future Technologies in the fields of Soft Matter and Life Sciences$$vPhysical Basis of Diseases$$x0 000843861 9141_ $$y2018 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1050$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bBIOSIS Previews 000843861 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1040$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bZoological Record 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bSCI REP-UK : 2015 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9905$$2StatID$$aIF >= 5$$bSCI REP-UK : 2015 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0501$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ Seal 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0500$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0110$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Physical, Chemical and Earth Sciences 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0310$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bNCBI Molecular Biology Database 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000843861 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000843861 920__ $$lyes 000843861 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)ICS-4-20110106$$kICS-4$$lZelluläre Biophysik$$x0 000843861 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)ICS-6-20110106$$kICS-6$$lStrukturbiochemie $$x1 000843861 9801_ $$aFullTexts 000843861 980__ $$ajournal 000843861 980__ $$aVDB 000843861 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000843861 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)ICS-4-20110106 000843861 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)ICS-6-20110106 000843861 981__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)IBI-1-20200312 000843861 981__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)IBI-7-20200312
