Özet

In the field of biomaterials research, especially regarding biocompatibility that is intended to be placed in the body, the behavior of cells and bacteria on surfaces is observed. Generally, in these studies, inverted optical microscopes are used during surface imaging when metallic materials are used. However, the fact that bacteria and cells have three-dimensional shapes makes it difficult to visualize them on non-transparent surfaces. The inability to get a clear image from the surfaces makes the studies of the researchers very difficult. This study explains how to obtain more explicit images by using image processing technology in the imaging of bacteria and cells, which are frequently used in biomaterial studies.
