Quantification of bacterial biofilm formation on polystyrene microtiter plates under static conditions. Bacteria were isolated from intertidal mudflat biofilms (white bars) and from corrosion product-microorganism composite biofilms developed on harbor metallic structures (black bars). After 24 h of growth, single-species biofilms were quantified with crystal violet and the ratios of OD595 (cells grown in biofilm)/OD600 (planktonic cells) were calculated. The ratios are represented on the y axis. Dotted bars: bacteria with a ratio OD595/OD600 >8. Bars represent means ± standard deviations for three replicates
