Building a Digital Inline Holographic Microscope

3D printing is not as simple as uploading your file and pressing 'Start'. There are a number of optimisation steps that need to be made

Read our quick guide to help you troubleshoot and calibrate, so that you can get prototyping

Making the QWACC

Introduction

Upon being asked to find the number of bacteria in a given sample, the response from members of our iGEM team has invariably been a long sigh and a plea to the realms of the supernatural. That most human quality - laziness - and flaws in traditional techniques, which we will revisit below, have led to us designing a potential solution in the form of a Digital Inline Holographic Microscope (DIHM).
