Detecting Escherichia coli biofilm development stages on gold and titanium by quartz crystal microbalance
Summary
Escherichia coli biofilms are followed on gold and titanium QCM electrodes through adhesion, maturation and dispersion, using both frequency and dissipation in real time and without labels. Atomic force microscopy and crystal violet staining confirm the QCM picture, and the authors propose QCM with different electrode metals as a simple platform for testing antimicrobial surfaces and biofilm removal.
