In comparison with traditional microscopy cell counting and colony culture methods, this micro-optofluidic platform is not only more accurate in terms of the detection efficiency for airborne microorganisms but it also provides additional information on the total particle number concentration. Our optofluidic system involves the following steps: (1) sampling of airborne microorganisms; (2) mixing and reacting in a microchannel for staining; and (3) real-time detection and analysis of the particle by means of light scattering (SC) and bacterial fluorescence (FL). To evaluate the particle detection efficiency for airborne microorganisms, the total concentration of bacteria obtained from the FL signal of the micro-optofluidic platform was compared with the conventional fluorescence microscopy cell counting and colony counting methods.	./cache/cord-336901-q6kgzuob.txt	./txt/cord-336901-q6kgzuob.txt
