Research Advances on Adsorption of Bacteria to Mineral Surface

Abstract:

Adsorption of bacteria to mineral surface is the premise of deep interaction of bacteria and mineral, and is also the fundamental application research of bacteria in mineral processing as reagents. The environmental factors influencing adsorption of bacteria to mineral surface, interaction between bacteria and mineral, effect of bacterial surface groups, surface components and its extracellular polymer substance on adsorption were summarized in this article, and the research direction of microbe applying in mineral processing is proposed.
