摘要：

Investigation of the adhesion and interaction of Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus and Pseudomonas fluorescens immobilized on the surface of a transparent plastic substrate revealed the ability of bdellovibrios to live and reproduce in a biofilm on a solid surface. The dynamics of the population of free bdellovibrios, bdelloplasts, and intact host cells studied by epifluorescence microscopy showed that two-component bacterial predator-prey systems immobilized on the surface of a transparent plastic substrate are promising models for the investigation of the role of bacterial predators in various ecosystems.
