The effect of the initial substrate surface condition, as indicated by the critical surface tension for wetting, on the rate of attachment of marine bacteria to a variety of solid surfaces has been measured. The techniques used to determine the number of bacteria attached per unit surface area were a lipopolysaccharide test utilizing Limulus lysate and direct examination of the surface by scanning electron microscopy. The results obtained by the two techniques are compared and their significance to the control of microbiological slime film formation (microfouling) is discussed.
已经测量了初始底物表面状况(以润湿临界表面张力表示)对海洋细菌附着到各种固体表面速率的影响。用于确定每单位表面积附着细菌数量的技术是利用鲎试剂的脂多糖测试以及通过扫描电子显微镜直接检查表面。比较了通过这两种技术获得的结果,并讨论了它们对控制微生物黏液膜形成(微生物污损)的意义。
