Strength of bacterial adhesion on nanostructured surfaces quantified by substrate morphometry Open
Bacterial adhesion to nanostructured surfaces can be quantified by surface morphometry: the surface area that is accessible in a certain depth for tethering cell wall molecules equals the fraction of adhesion force as compared to a smooth …

Enhanced Adhesion of S. Mutans to Hydroxyapatite after Inoculation in Saliva Open
Streptococcus mutans cells form robust biofilms on human teeth and are strongly related to caries incidents. Hence, understanding the adhesion of S. mutans in the human oral cavity is of major interest for preventive dentistry. In this stu…
