Bacterial growth on treated and untreated stainless steel

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Bacterial growth on treated and untreated stainless steel

These scanning electron microscope images show the difference in adhesion of E. coli bacteria. The stainless steel sample on the left had no treatment, while the sample on the right was treated to create a nanotextured surface. (Credit: Yeongseon Jang, Georgia Tech)
