Live Characterization of Bacterial Slime Formation Using SEEC Microscopy

Label-free and live characterization of bacteria slime. <br />Work published in PNAS June 19, 2012 vol. 109 no. 25 10036-10041 <br /> <br />Surface–enhanced ellipsometric contrast (SEEC) microscopy allows to identify slime as a major adhesion factor during bacterial surface motility. SEEC microscopy is a label-free optical technique based on new generation of optical slide displaying outstanding contrast-enhanced properties to a point nanometric structures/samples can be visualize from a regular optical system. <br />Know more at www.nano-lane.com
