Factors influencing initial bacterial adhesion to antifouling surfaces studied by single-cell force spectroscopy
Summary: Biofilm formation, a major concern for healthcare systems, is initiated when bacteria adhere to surfaces. Escherichia coli adhesion is mediated by appendages, including type-1 fimbriae and curli amyloid fibers. Antifouling surfaces prevent the adhesion of bacteria to combat biofilm formatio...
