You can use FISH (or variants) with universal bacterial probes, but it will hybridize with mitochondria too.

Thank you. FISH could be an option, but i think it will be much more expensive than a dye?

It would be very hard to get one that is specific for ALL bacterial species - think about differences in cell wall etc.

You are of course right. A couple of dyes to cover, maybe not all bacteria species, but as many as possible could also be interesting. As long as they do not simultaneously stain mammalian cells.
