Floating and Tether-Coupled Adhesion of Bacteria to Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Surfaces

Models for bacterial adhesion to substratum surfaces all include uncertainty with respect to the (ir)reversibility of adhesion. In a model, based on vibrations exhibited by adhering bacteria parallel to a surface, adhesion was described as a result of reversible binding of multiple bacterial tethers...
