How can i measure the biofilm thickness diposited on metal surface?
I think SEM or AFM is a better choice
Sir what is the procedure for sample preparation for AFM?
sorry, I just have done the SEM test, but seen others detect the biofilm with AFM.
For SEM, the samples were fixed, Gradient elution using ethanol,and drying.
using SEM how can i measure the thickness of biofilm?
