A Submersible, Off Axis Holographic Microscope for Detection of Microbial Motility and Morphology

A Submersible, OffAxis Holographic Microscope for Detection of Microbial Motility and Morphology in Aqueous and Icy Environments. Christian A. Lindensmith et al (2016), PLoS ONE Sea ice is an analog environment for several of astrobiologys nearterm targets: Mars, Europa, Enceladus, and perhaps other Jovian or Saturnian moons. Microorganisms, both eukaryotic and prokaryotic, remain active within brine channels inside the ice, making it unnecessary to penetra
