Abstract
The adsorption of some bacterial cultures to four ion‐exchange resins was assessed by plate counts. With some organism/resin combinations, the level of adsorption was high and consistent, but not in the majority of cases. The use of two independent measurements of biomass, assay of cell protein or catalase activity, showed that, with the exception of one type of resin, the assessment of adsorption by plate counts alone was misleading and other independent measurements must be made. Assessing the adsorption of bacteria to electropositive filters by plate counts appeared acceptable, but again independent measurements should be made.
