This study examined whether a flow-induced electromagnetic field in an electrolyte system affects bacterial adhesion to polycardanol-based surfaces modified with ferromagnetic iron oxide. IO-ionic solution-modified surfaces associated with induced currents (44–66 nA) showed reduced bacterial adhesion compared with…

This in vitro study tested whether a weak electric field reconstructed from duodenal spiking potentials during an MMC cycle affects bacterial adhesion to Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells. The MMC-related electric field increased adhesion of Lactobacillus and Lactococcus strains, while two pathogenic strains…
