Abstract

Hessian sandbags are being deployed in denuded South Australian seagrass meadows to facilitate seedling recruitment in metropolitan areas impacted by nutrient rich waste water. As the hessian is degrading prematurely, we are trialling coatings to limit surface bacterial adhesion, using compounds that do not have environmental toxicity: an antibacterial, polyethylene glycol; and two silanes, tetraethoxysilane and propyltrimethoxysilane. The aim of this study was to compare the ability of E. coli, a model human pathogenic bacterium found in waste water, to attach and persist on coated versus native hessian.
