SummarySummary

The process of bacterial adhesion is dictatedThe process of bacterial adhesion is dictated by a number of factors including species, surface composition environmental factorssurface composition, environmental factors and essential gene products“Rule of thumb” initial adhesion is generallyRule of thumb - initial adhesion is generally mediated by nonspecific (e.g. hydrophobic) interactions where as final adhesion is dictatedinteractions, where as final adhesion is dictated through specific molecular fastening mechanismsmechanisms
