    Abstract: Detection and quantification of microbial colonization and biofilm formation on orthopedic explants would be important for deciding treatment interventions at the time of surgery. Methods and Systems for such treatments are shown that utilize various steps and kits to quickly generate confocal laser-scanning microscopy (CLSM) images to allow for the detection and quantification. The explants are prepared by applying antibodies of both gram-positive and grain-negative for at least one period of time.
