Analysis of force interactions between AFM tips and hydrophobic bacteria using DLVO theory

Microbial adhesion to surfaces and interfaces is strongly influenced by their structure and physicochemical properties. We used atomic force microscopy (AFM) to measure the forces between chemically functionalized AFM tips and two bacterial species exhibiting different cell surface hydrophobicities,...
