Ugly ducklings - The dark side of plastic materials in contact with potable water
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Biofilms from the inner surface of multiple bath toys were characterised, particularly focussing on total cell counts (flow cytometry) and microbial community compositions (16S rDNA amplicon sequencing). A control study was done to elucidate the impact of (1) the flexible plastic material, (2) bacteria from the tap water, and (3) biological and chemical properties of the used bath water on these biofilms.
