A Pseudomonas putida 54G biofilm was grown on toluene vapor supplied as the sole external carbon and energy source in a flat plate biofilm reactor. Enumerations of cells in the biofilm were made using culture techniques (selective and nonselective for toluene) and microscopic techniques (total and r
