I am interested in bacterial colonisation of flocs from a water treatment
works. The predominant composition of the floc material is iron.
The material can be easily disrupted by physical techniques to remove the
attached micro-organisms. However, can anyone suggest whether there are
suitable detergents or other agents which can be used to aid dispersion of the
desorbed micro-organisms.
Thanks
