Effect of exposure time, bacteria concentration and culture age of escherichia coli and bacillus subtilis on the glass surface

This thesis presents the effect of the bacterial adhesion on the glass surface (hydrophilic surfaces) at different time exposure and bacterial concentration. The ability of Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis to attach to the surfaces depends mainly on the interaction of hydrophobic domains. Howe...
