These induced cells are the most clearly fluorescent from the set that was measured. Based on the previous results we decided to alter the protocol for preparing cells for microscopy, instead of fixing the cells on a glass slide, these cells were in liquid medium on the slide. The alternative protocol can be found here. By comparing images A and C it is clear that the fluorescence is caused by the protein being expressed on the cell surface. Image B shows that the Pl_lac promoter did not leak and cause uninduced cells to express the protein in great enough numbers to be visible.
