pubmed:abstractText |
The densities of adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus and Serratia marcescens to five types of plastics were studied in relation to interfacial free energies at the aqueous interfaces of both the bacteria and the plastics. The free energy of adhesion of bacteria to plastic in an aqueous medium is a linear function of partititon of the bacteria between the solid surface and the liquid phase. These results show that the thermodynamics of the partitioning of a suspended particle between two immiscible liquid phases also apply to partitioning between a liquid and a solid phase.
