The series piezoelectric quartz crystal (SPQC) sensing technique is a rapid and sensitive method for detection of microorganisms. In the present study, the detection device was composed of detecting system, signal generating system and data analyzing system. To magnify the amount of detection samples, eight independent SPQC sensors were parallel connected to form a muti-channel detecting unit. Electrodes were separated from the SPQC sensor and immersed into culture medium to detect the change of solution conductivity. The cell constant k was de...
