Abstract
The effects of NH
4
Cl concentration, organic nitrogen compounds, glucose concentration, dissolved oxygen concentration, and flow rate on the attached growth of pure cultures of
Sphaerotilus natans
and of a mixed population in a continuous-flow apparatus are described. Low concentrations of NH
4
Cl and oxygen, and high flow rates resulted in attached populations that were dominated by
Sphaerotilus
. The conditions that allowed maximal attached growth in pure culture did not correspond to the conditions that promoted attached growth of
Sphaerotilus
in a mixed population.
