Effect of iron on surface charge and hydrophobicity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

K E Magnusson, E Kihlstrom, A Norqvist, J Davies, S Normark.   

Abstract

The effect of iron concentration during growth on the physicochemical surface properties of the colonial variants of Neisseria gonorrhoeae has been assessed by aqueous two-phase partitioning in a dextran-polyethyleneglycol system containing positively charged trimethylamino-polyethyleneglycol or hydrophobic polyethyleneglycol-palmitate. The complex effects of iron, in combination with other variables known to affect surface charge and hydrophobicity, have provided some clues as to the properties of the gonococcal surface that are important in promoting virulence.
