Ramsden, Quantification of the number of adsorbed bacteria on an optical waveguide, Journal of Biological Physics and Chemistry, Volume 10, 2010, Issue 2, Pages 53–541512-0856http://dspace.lib.cranfield.ac.uk/handle/1826/5545A simple method is presented for determining the number of bacteria adsorbed on a planar optical waveguide from measurements of a single effective refractive index. It requires only knowledge of the shape and mean size of the bacteria.en-UKArticle
