Their great biosorption ability is due to high surface-to-volume ratios and the potential active chemosorption sites (teichoic acid) on the cell wall [119].
A negative correlation between DTPA extractable Zn and clay content of the soil was found (Sidhu and Sharma 2010).An increase in pH results in more retention by soil colloids due to increase in cation exchange capacity (adsorptive capacity) chemosorption on CaCO3 and iron oxides (Cox and Kamprath 1972; Yoo and James 2002; Alloway2004).
According to Beveridge (1989) bacteria make excellent biosorbents because of their high surface-to-volume ratios and a high content of potentially active chemosorption sites such as on teichoic acid in their cell walls [4].
According to Beveridge (1989), teichoic acid in the cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria had very high potentials as chemosorption sites.
