Abstract

The method of analysis of the temporal and spatial contrasts of speckle fields formed during the coherent scattering of radiation in bacterial colonies has been adapted to monitor the growth and structure of bacterial colonies by the example of E. coli. A noticeable change in the spatial structures of colonies during their growth has been demonstrated.
