Main groups of corrosive microorganisms are considered. The parameters of the medium that intensify biocorrosion and the conditions for the formation of biofilms are described. The mechanisms of biocorrosion induced by the main groups of unicellular microorganisms are proposed, and the characteristic types of biodamage, specified.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
