Abstract

Characteristics of surface-adsorbed bioluminescent bacteria were examined. The bacteria were expected to function as an oxygen probe inside the biofilm. Luminescent behavior of the bacteria inside a typical biofilm was observed. Adsorption characteristics as well as the luminescence intensity change through the desorption process were investigated.
