AB  - The short-term kinetics of bacterial repopulation were evaluated after 
      chlorination of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) colonized with drinking water 
      biofilms and compared with bare HDPE surfaces. The effect of chlorination was 
      partial as a residual biofilm persisted and was time-limited as repopulation 
      occurred immediately after water resupply. The total number of bacteria reached 
      the same levels on both the bare and chlorinated biofilm-fouled HDPE after a 
      seven-day exposure to drinking water. Due to the presence of a residual biofilm, 
      the hydrophobicity of chlorinated biofilm-fouled surface exhibited much lower 
      adhesion forces (2.1 nN) compared to bare surfaces (8.9 nN). This could explain 
      the rapid repopulation after chlorination, with a twofold faster bacterial 
      accumulation rate on the bare HDPE surface. gamma-Proteobacteria dominated the early 
      stages of repopulation of both surfaces and a shift in the dominance occurred 
      over the colonization time. Such observations define a timescale for cleaning 
      frequency in industrial environments and guidelines for a rinsing procedure using 
      drinking water.
