Abstract
A computer calculation was performed for the particle scattering factors and relative change of the scattered light by randomly and completely oriented cylindrical particles with greatest dimension not exceeding 3 and axial ratios from 0·1 to 10. The Rayleigh-Gans approximation was used. The dependence of the particle scattering factor and the relative change of the scattered light on the dimensions and axial ratios are presented in tables and graphs which indicate those cases where particles cannot be treated as strongly elongated. Comparison of the results with the preliminary measurements on P. aeruginosa—11B cells showed poor agreement which was attributed to deviations from Rayleigh-Gans theory.
