- •
Adaptation of cells to QACs was performed by serial cell exposure QACs.
- •
The affinity of cells to treated and not treated surfaces was investigated.
- •
Surface treatment with QAC enhanced cell affinity to stainless steel.
- •
Higher water contact angle and energy of adhesion resulted in more cell inactivation.
- •
Results can be used for facility hygiene manufacture and appropriate sanitation.
