Paracoccus seriniphilus adhered on surfaces: Resistance of a seawater bacterium against shear forces under the influence of roughness, surface energy, and zeta potential of the surfaces
{{output}}
Bacteria in flowing media are exposed to shear forces exerted by the fluid. Before a biofilm can be formed, the bacteria have to attach to a solid surface and have to resist these shear forces. Here, the authors determined dislodgement forces of single Paracoc... ...
