| Abstract: | The influence of acid exopolysaccharides of some Pseudomonas species on the viability and fractional disperse composition of Salmonella marcescens-9 aerosol under static conditions has been studied. Acid exopolysaccharides have been shown to form membranes around bacteria. These membranes, due to their adsorptive and water-retaining properties, seemingly enhance the viability of bacteria in aerosol, both in the process of its generation and during its suspension in the air under static conditions with different values of relative humidity. |
