Hi Kashif,

Here is a suggestion:

1: Since your petri dish is always round, you could do a circle
selection inside its edge, in order to avoid the shadows and
highlights on the edge that could be counted as particles.
2: Fill everything outside your circle with the background color
(making it all disappear).
4: Write down the radius or diameter of your circle since this will
give you the area of your dish.
5: Run a particle analyzer on the image.
6: Export the result to an Excel spreadsheet
7: Add circle radius to each spreadsheet for calculating density.

There is a mature particle analyzer coming with ImageJ, it should
probably do what you need based on your images.
There is also a particle analyzer with different properties coming
with the ShapeLogic plugin.
