Summary

Evaluated simplification of some steps of the FC protocol, seeking the best compromise between precision and the quality of distinction of HF from bacteria and phytoplankton in the cytograms, found that a flow rate of 120–220 µL min−1 without using a syringe‐pump enhanced machine modification, and running times of 8–10 min allowed enumeration of HF even at values below 102 cells mL−1.
