All research indicated that the adhesion processes of bacterial and algae involved an instantaneous reversible Phase and a time-dependent irreversible phase. The adhesion behaviour is basically controled by physico-chemical and biological forces and influenced by various environmental factors. The adhesion behaviour of bacterial and algae has important in freshwater ecosystem and its ecological significance implication is discussed in detail in the end.展开更多

Bacterial adhesion on implant materials would induce inflammation and result in implant failure. The adhesion of bacteria on food-processing and handling equipment may lead to food-borne illness. To reduce and even prevent bacterial adhesion, some bacterial anti-adhesion surface designs have been developed. However,the effect of some surface properties(including surface patterning, roughness and wettability) on bacterial adhesion has not been systematically summarized. In this review, a comprehensive overview of bacterial anti-adhesion surface design is presented. Modifying the surface pattern and roughness could reduce the contact area between bacteria and surfaces to weaken the initial adhesion force. Fabricating superhydrophobic surface or modifying hydrophilic functional groups could hinder the bacterial adhesion. The analysis and discussion about influencing factors of bacterial anti-adhesion surfaces provide basic guidelines on antibacterial surface design for future researches.展开更多
