Cell-surface hydrophobicity and cell-surface charge of Azospirillum spp

1997-10-01

Abstract excerpt

The cell-surface charge and cell-surface hydrophobicity of 10 strains of Azospirillum spp. were evaluated by the aqueous, two-polymer phase partitioning assay. Azospirillum spp. had moderate cell-surface hydrophobicity and charge, lower than known values for human pathogens. The hydrophobicity and charge values were higher in solid than in liquid media. A general pattern of modifying hydrophobicity and charge by e...
