Graphical methods for the analysis of shear-induced detachment of cells and microorganisms

Biointerphases· Volume 10· Issue 3

Abstract

Treating shear stress induced detachment of micro-organisms as a bond breaking mechanism, the authors present three intuitive graphical approaches to determine the relevant parameters in the Arrhenius rate equation, i.e., attachment energy, prefactor, and maximum shear stress. They demonstrate the methods with the detachment of polystyrene spheres and show that having three different methods presents the opportunity to check the consistency of the results.
