Adhesive capacity to human buccal cells (HBC) of Vibrio cholerae 01 was expressed optimally in synthetic culture medium. Bacterial adhesion was inhibited efficiently by fetuin and weakly by d-mannose, d-glucose and thyroglobulin. Pretreatment of HBC with neuraminidase, protease or trypsin reduced the adhesion of V. cholerae 01 cells.
