摘要：

An intensity-modulated fibre optic sensor was developed for Escherichia coli O157:H7. The interaction between the whole natural bacteria and the guided lightwave was carried out by means of evanescent-field coupling. A correlation between optical response and the current number of bacteria was achieved. The device sensitivity had been calibrated for initial number of bacteria (N-0) from 10-800. The sensor sensitivity was 0.016 (+/- 0.001) dB/h/N-0. The sensing mechanism starts together with the log phase leading the present sensor response to be five to ten times faster than conventional bacteriological techniques. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science BY.
