Abstract

Microbial footprints of Pseudomonas aeruginosa MDC attached for 1 h to clean or silanized glass were analyzed with fluorescently labeled lectin probes. Footprint composition varied, depending on cell physiology and substratum surface chemistry. This suggests that substratum physicochemistry affected the structure of cell surfaces of adsorbed organisms.
