The formation of the biofilm and the roughness of the nickel surface were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. In addition, the pH values of the medium did not change throughout the experiment, however after ...
Bacterial colonisation and biofilm formation on the surface of urinary catheters is a common cause of nosocomial infection, and as such is a major impedime... R Orme,CWI Douglas,S Rimmer,... - 《Proteomics》 被引量: 122发表: 2010年 Role of the 25 kDa major outer membrane protein of ...
Steps are dominant morphologic traits of high-energy streams, where climatically- and biogeochemically-relevant gases are processed, transported to downstream ecosystems or released into the atmosphere. Yet, capturing the imprint of the small-scale morph
On the other hand, when growing cyanobacteria for other purposes, the production of EPS may be coun- terproductive by decreasing the energy available for growth, promoting biofilm formation and increasing the susceptibility to grazing10–12. As a result of this duality, the interest on ...
Biofilm formation is a major factor in the growth and spread of both desirable and undesirable bacteria as well as in fouling and corrosion. In order to si... JS Teodósio,M Sim?Es,L.F. Melo & F.J. Mergulh?o - 《Biofouling》 被引量: 47发表: 2011年 Placental vessel morphometry in ...

Bioleaching of metal sulfides is an interfacial process where biofilm formation is considered to be important in the initial steps of this process. Among t... Sören,Bellenberg,Mauricio,... - 《Research in Microbiology》 被引量: 21发表: 2014年 Rolling friction and shear behaviour of rock dis...
For biofilm formation, Streptococcus mutans was grown on each specimen in a biofilm medium with either glucose or sucrose in the presence of fluid-phase UWS (F-UWS) or surface adsorbed saliva (S-UWS). The adherent bacteria were quantified by enumeration of the total viable counts of bacteria....
Moreover, the conventional pretreatment did not significantly promote cell mortality; however, it caused an increase in extracellular polysaccharide production during biofilm formation. The additional chlorination step increased the biofouling phenomenon, causing the production of particulate matter, likely due...
The conventional pretreatment procedure in this study includes acidification, CO2 stripping and pH elevation, and its effect on planktonic cell mortality and biofilm formation on the membrane was analyzed. An in-situ electrolytic production of free chlorine in seawater, during the low pH phase, was ...
