In particular, fit to the log-skew-Laplace distribution for cellular side scatter or ‘granulosity’ is reported, and a number of theoretical and applied issues are considered in relation to the biological significance of this fit. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/mic.0.27460-0
