Abstract
The response of magnetotactic bacteria to an applied magnetic field has been analyzed using image processing techniques. Bacterial characteristics, including magnetic movement, have been processed at a higher rate and evaluated with greater accuracy. This method offers a unique tool in data analysis and enhancement for recorded images of biological systems
