An image cytometer based on angular spatial frequency processing and its validation for rapid detection and quantification of waterborne microorganisms [PDF]
, 2015 We introduce a new image cytometer design for detection of very small particulate and demonstrate its capability in water analysis. The device is a compact microscope composed of off the shelf components, such as a light emitting diode (LED) source, a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor, and a specific combination of optical ...
