This article reviews the mechanisms of bacterial adhesion to biomaterial surfaces and the factors affecting the adhesion. The process of bacterial adhesion includes an initial physicochemical interaction phase (phase one) and a late molecular and cellular interaction phase (phase two), which is a co
The ability of bacteria to adhere to polymeric interfaces has attracted considerable attention in recent years. Metabolic labeling of microorganisms with 35S- methionine or other p-emitters is commonly utilized for quantification of bacterial adhesion to biopolymers. Since the use of these isotopes
