The role of surface properties of Thiobacillus Ferrooxidans and minerals in microbial adhesion

The role of surface properties of Thiobacillus Ferrooxidans and minerals in microbial adhesion

To explain the selective microbial adhesion of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans on pyrite, zeta potential of both the bacterium cells and the mineral was measured using the electrophoretic light scattering (ELS) technique. Simultaneously, relative hydrophobicity of the cells and the mineral was determined...
