Abstract

Ultraweak luminescence of Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Brevibacterium ammoniagenes was measured with high sensitive single photon counting equipment (Made in China). The results obtained from ultraweak luminescence of as above three bacterial strains were as follows: spectral distribution curves, photon emission kinetic curves or emission intensity and its qualitative relationship between intensity and bacterial counts.
