Michael Halim Popular answer

Interesting question. Following the discussion.

Walid Hassene Hamri

Hi,

The most widely applied models in assessing the adhesion of microorganisms are Caco-2 and HT-29 cells. There is also a Caco2-bbe1 cell line which was cloned from the Caco-2 cell line. Caco2-bbe1 can be grown as polarized cells and when grown in transwells offer both apical and basolateral surfaces (more comparable to the human colon).

Alaa Kareem Niamah

You can use Congo red agar for adhesion of microorganisms analysis.
