Adhesion plays a major role in the bacterial lifestyle. Bacteria
can adhere to organic and inorganic surfaces, to each other, and of
course to host cells during pathogenesis. The focus of this book
is: how are such adhesion phenomena best studied? Microbial
genetics experiments have greatly enhanced our knowledge of what
bacterial factors are involved in adhesion. For numerous reasons,
though, biochemical and structural biology knowledge of the
molecular interactions involved in adhesion are limited. One major
problem has been a lack of interdisciplinary research and
understanding in the field. On the one hand, the microbiologists
lack detailed knowledge of the biophysical possibilities and have
limited access to the frequently expensive instrumentation involved
while on the other hand, the experts in these methods frequently do
not have access to the biological materials, nor do they
necessarily understand the biological questions to be answered. The
purpose of this book is thus to overcome this gap in communication
between researchers in biology, chemistry and physics and to
display the many ways and means to investigate bacterial adhesion.
We hope to stimulate new and ground-breaking research.
