Continuous Flow Microscopy

Hello all,

I'm looking to purchase/build a device that would allow me to observe bacteria from a liquid culture media over a period of time without manually transferring the liquid to a slide. Something automated that could get the media to drip over the slide while simultaneously washing off the previous 'selection' of bacteria.

The reason I'm interested in this is because I want to be able to control an experiment via internet, and so I wouldn't be physically present to monitor its growth. Would anyone happen to know of such a device, if it even exists?

If you want to get an idea you can refer Textbook of Bacteriology by Kenneth Todar you will get an idea.
