| description | Bacteria adhesion is a very complicated process affected by many factors: bacterial/material properties and environment. Materials characteristics and chemistry of surfaces are the most important factors in bacterial adhesion and biofilm growth. Cells initially attach by physico–chemical interactions or extracellular matrix protein secretion to form a cell monolayer, in which cells express pili and have twitching motility and/or the ability to undergo chemotaxis. Cells proliferate in the monolayer and other microbes attach to form an active biofilm, the development and distortion of which is influenced by environmental factors such as hydrodynamic and mechanical stress. Cells in the mature biofilm are motile and undergo chemotaxis, which leads to spreading of biomass and an increased rate of horizontal gene transfer. As cells die, active bioconversion and/or biodegradation leads to solute transfer to or from the bulk liquid which results in eventual biofilm detachment.
The work was focused on performing surface modifications studies by codeposition of dispersed nano particles with metals in order to observe the influence of materials structure (nano-structured coatings prepared) on bacteria cells (Sulphate Reducing Bacteria) attachment. Sessile bacteria on coupons were stained with 4, 6-diamidino-2- phenylindol (DAPI) and visualized by EFM as well as AFM. These types of bacteria are well known as very corrosive for metals in natural seawater. |
