Effect of Gravity on Bacterial Adhesion to Heterogeneous Surfaces. [PDF]

Pathogens, 2023
Bacterial adhesion is the first step in the formation of surface biofilms. The number of bacteria that bind to a surface from the solution depends on how many bacteria can reach the surface (bacterial transport) and the strength of interactions between ...

Interaction between microorganisms and dental material surfaces: general concepts and research progress

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2023
Bacterial adhesion to dental materials’ surfaces is the initial cause of dental materials-related infections. Therefore, inhibiting bacterial adhesion is a critical step in preventing and controlling these infections. To this end, it is important to know

Quantitative characterization of the influence of the nanoscale morphology of nanostructured surfaces on bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Bacterial infection of implants and prosthetic devices is one of the most common causes of implant failure. The nanostructured surface of biocompatible materials strongly influences the adhesion and proliferation of mammalian cells on solid substrates ...

Interaction of Bartonella henselae with Fibronectin Represents the Molecular Basis for Adhesion to Host Cells

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Bacterial adhesion to the host is the most decisive step in infections. Trimeric autotransporter adhesins (TAA) are important pathogenicity factors of Gram-negative bacteria. The prototypic TAA Bartonella adhesin A (BadA) from human-pathogenic Bartonella

Bacterial Adhesion at Synthetic Surfaces [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1999
ABSTRACT A systematic investigation into the effect of surface chemistry on bacterial adhesion was carried out. In particular, a number of physicochemical factors important in defining the surface at the molecular level were assessed for their effect on the adhesion of Listeria monocytogenes ...
