Rare earth ions complexes provide numerous highly beneficial optical properties ‐ unusually large Stokes shifts, very narrow line emissions and long‐lived excited states being the most prominent of them. Surprisingly few attempts have this far been reported to directly exploit them as direct microbial stains. M. Lezhnina and coworkers here describe basic staining strategies for fluorescence microscopy and outline their eventual potential in fluorescence flow cytometry. Further details can be found in the article by Marina M. Lezhnina, Weronika Rochowiak, Wolfgang Göhde, Rauni Kuczius, and Ulrich Kynast ( e202000068 ).
