The DIHM Analysis Technique
We have developed a digital inline holographic microscope and related software that can be used in conjunction to analyse the shapes, sizes and growth rate of microorganisms. We also speculate that, with some improvement, the same hardware and software could be used to observe and quantify the motility of cells.
On our Results page, we have provided evidence to show the validity of our technique with respect to shape, size and cell-count measurements. As can be seen therein, we have been able to measure the features and density of cells in mono-cultures and samples containing more than one species. We therefore propose that the use of digital inline holographic microscopy is suited to characterising the effects of Parts which influence (or are expected to influence) the growth rate or structure of microorganisms.
