Biofilm recovery after treatment with an anionic and cationic surfactant at sublethal concentrations

The biofilm recovery after treatment with SDS (anionic surfactant) and with CTAB (cationic surfactant) was investigated. Biofilms were formed by Pseudomonas fluorescens on stainless steel slides, under turbulent and laminar flow. The post-surfactant application effect was assessed, in terms of biofi...
