<DIV>The Microbiology Research Laboratory, University of Portsmouth, UK,
headed
by Dr Iwona Beech, now has a web site. Visit <A
href="http://www.sci.port.ac.uk/~rzt/home.html">http://www.sci.port.ac.uk/~r
zt/home.html</A>
to find out about our research into microbial biofilms in such diverse
situations as the corrosion of metals, the deterioration of building
materials,
life on martian meteorites and infections such as ulcerative colitis.
Techniques
used by the group include Atomic force microscopy (AFM), SEM, Environmental
SEM,
Fluorescence microscopy and Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR). Reprints of
our
papers may be requested on the web site.</DIV>
