Bacterial Adhesion

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: Physicochemical property of fimbriated (FIMBRIAE, BACTERIAL) and non-fimbriated bacteria of attaching to cells, tissue, and nonbiological surfaces. It is a factor in bacterial colonization and pathogenicity.  do not confuse with X ref BACTERIAL ADHESINS see ADHESINS, BACTERIAL, bact antigens; DF: BACT ADHESION   
See Also Adhesins, Bacterial 		Other names Adhesion, Bacterial; Bacterial Adhesions; Adhesions, Bacterial
