Motivated by observations of cell orientation at biofilm-substrate interfaces and reports that cell orientation and adhesion play important roles in biofilm evolution and function, we investigated the influence of surface chemistry on the orientation of Escherichia coli cells captured from flow onto surfaces that were cationic, hydrophobic, or anionic. We characterized the initial orientations of nonmotile cells captured from gentle shear relative to the surface and flow directions. The broad distribution of captured cell orientations observed on cationic s
