Abstract
⺠Bacterial attachment to stainless steel and XDLVO theory predictions were compared. ⺠Attachment of the three Campylobacter strains could be predicted by XLDVO. ⺠Attachment of the three Salmonella strains could not be predicted by XLDVO. ⺠Salmonella strains differed from each other in acid-base interactions but not contact angles. ⺠Differences in outcomes from these techniques are critical in predicting bacterial attachment.
