Immobilization of Escherichia coli (E. coli) on commercial activated charcoal was enhanced by mild chemical treatment coupled with curli production from E. coli. The chemical used to treat the activated charcoal were sodium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid, ammonium hydroxide, and acetic acid while nick...
