Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Bacterial cells protect themselves from environmental conditions with either S layer or glycocalyx. S layer is single layers of a protein linked together to form a chain. The function of this layer is to armor the bacterial cell. Glycocalyx is a sticky and gelatinous substance that surrounds the cell from outside.
