In situ imaging of Sulfobacillus thermosulfidooxidans on pyrite under conditions of variable pH using tapping mode atomic force microscopy

Sulfobacillus thermosulfidooxidans cells attached to pyrite surfaces were imaged using in situ tapping mode atomic force microscopy (AFM). The attached bacteria were dispersed in small groups without preferred orientation or site specific preference. The importance of extracellular polymeric substan...
