Simple observation of Streptococcus mutans biofilm by scanning electron microscopy using ionic liquids

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been successfully used to image biofilms because of its high resolution and magnification. However, conventional SEM requires dehydration and metal coating of biological samples before observation, and because biofilms consist mainly of water, sample dehydratio...
