Disclosed herein are systems and methods for the continuous, on-line, real-time surveillance (CORTS) of microorganisms/particles. In one embodiment, a system comprises an optical illuminator for directing a light along a beam axis and onto a particle. In addition, the system comprises an angular amplifier configured to receive light scattered in a plurality of directions by the particle, and to minimize the angular dispersion of the scattered light with respect to the beam axis. The system also comprises an optical detector configured to receive at least a portion of the scattered light from the angular amplifier. A method of identifying particles comprises directing a light along a beam axis and onto a particle, and receiving light scattered in a plurality of directions by the particle. The method further comprises minimizing the angular dispersion of the scattered light with respect to the beam axis, and detecting at least a portion of the scattered light after minimizing the angular dispersion of the beam.
