Microbiological corossion of metallic products as a result of biofilm
PublicationWarunkiem do pojawienia się korozji mikrobiologicznej jest utworzenie na powierzchni metalu biofilmu. Zawiera on biologicznie czynne mikroorganizmy wraz z produktami ich przemian metabolicznych. Biofilm ogranicza dyfuzję produktów metabolizmu wytwarzanych przez poszczególne komórki mikrokolonii. Powoduje to, że produkty uboczne tych przemian gromadzą się w bezpośrednim sąsiedztwie metalu. Gdy powierzchnia metalu nie jest odporna...
