Abstract
A fast, highly selective and sensitive method to quantify specific bio masses in mixed-culture biofilms is described. It consists of detachme nt of a biofilm from its support material, resolution of the detached biofilm flocs in order to separate the enclosed cells and antigens, an d quantification of specific biomass by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
