Abstract

Laser speckle imaging techniques have become widespread in many areas where non-invasive remote measurements are needed. For example, medical and microbiological fields. This technique is applicable for monitoring the behavioral activity of microorganisms. In the current study, using experiments with fungi and bacteria, we compare signal and image processing algorithms for analyzing microorganism's activity by laser speckle imaging techniques and demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method - sensitive sub-pixel correlation algorithm. The obtained results could allow to propose a technology for faster detection of bacterial and fungal growth in the culture medium. They could also be used to speed up the determination of antibacterial and antifungal susceptibility results.
