REAL-TIME UNDERWATER PARTICLE-SENSING SYSTEM USING BUBBLES

摘要

The present invention relates to a real-time underwater particle-sensing system using bubbles. The real-time underwater particle-sensing system using bubbles according to the present invention can quantitatively analyze bacteria in real time through visualization by generating bubbles and can analyze the surface properties and kinds of bacteria in real time through simulation. Thus, the sensing system is advantageous in terms of low detection cost, short detection time, and possibility for system miniaturization and modularization. In addition, the quantity of bacteria measured through the real-time underwater particle-sensing system using bubbles according to the present invention can be used as information for predicting concentrations of bacteria in water and in aerosols generated upon bursting of bubbles. Furthermore, the system can be used to determine kinds of bacteria through image analysis using surface properties of bacteria, computer-simulated trait prediction, and statistical analysis.
