Determination of Environmental Microorganisms by Image Analysis

Year 2020, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 58 - 67, 30.06.2020

Abstract

Environmental microorganisms are microscopic organisms found in natural (lake, river, sea, air, soil, etc) and artificial (suspended and attached biological reactor, oxidation ponds, constructed wetlands etc) environments that cannot be seen with the naked eye. The classification of environmental microorganisms is very important in monitoring environmental quality and operating biological reactors. However, microbiological analyzes are quite time consuming, laborious and expensive by conventional methods. In recent years, rapid advances in optical and software technology have allowed conceptualization and rapid recognition of small organisms such as bacteria and protozoa (0.1-100 µm) by means of microscopes. In this new classification technology, which is known as digital image processing, the microorganisms are preferably stained with a suitable dyestuff with taking the images by microscobe, after this image is processed morphologically and then taken into the computer's memory. Identification of the microorganism is performed by comparing with the processed images. In this study, the method of image processing which is very advantageous compared to the laborious classical methods and the expensive molecular microorganism determination methods, are explained conceptually and information about the limited studies are given.

Çevresel Mikroorganizmaların İmaj Analizi ile Tespiti

Year 2020, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 58 - 67, 30.06.2020

Abstract

Çevresel mikroorganizmalar, doğal (göller, akarsular, denizler, hava, toprak vs) ve yapay (askıda ve bağlı büyümeli biyolojik reaktörler, oksidasyon havuzları, yapay sulak alanlar vs), ortamlarda bulunan, çevresel açıdan önemli, çıplak gözle görülemeyen mikroskobik canlılardır. Çevresel mikroorganizmaların sınıflandırılması çevresel kalitenin izlenmesi ve biyolojik reaktörlerin işletilmesinde çok önemli olmaktadır. Ancak, mevcut manuel yöntemlerle mikrobiyolojik analizler oldukça zaman alıcı, zahmetli ve pahalı olmaktadır. Son yıllarda optik ve yazılım teknolojisindeki hızlı gelişmeler bakteri ve protozoa gibi küçük canlıların (0,1-100 µm) mikroskoplar yardımıyla hızlı olarak tanısına ve sayılmasına kavramsal olarak imkân tanımıştır. Dijital imaj prosesleme olarak bilinen bu yeni sınıflandırma teknolojisinde öncelikle olarak mikroorganizmaların olarak tercihan uygun bir boyar madde ile boyaması yapılarak mikroskop ile görüntüsü çekilir, Daha sonra bu görüntü morfolojik olarak işlenerek bilgisayarın hafızasına alınır. Mevcut olan işlenmiş görüntülerle karşılaştırma yapılarak mikroorganizmanın tanısı gerçekleştirilir. Bu çalışmada çok üzün süreler alan zahmetli klasik yöntemler ve pahalı olan moleküler mikroorganizma tayin yöntemlerine kıyasla avantajlı görülen imaj prosesleme yöntemi kavramsal olarak anlatılmış ve yapılan sınırlı çalışmalar hakkında bilgi verilmiştir.
