Analysis of biofilm formation by intestinal lactobacilli.

abstract：:The respiration of Candida lipolytica on n-tetradecane is decreased in the presence of bentonite. This inhibition is less pronounced by the introduction of hydrophobic chains on the bentonite. Oxygen demand of resting cells varies with the length of hydrophobic chains. In fermentor, addition of adsorbant does not stim...
