Superdormant Spores of Bacillus Species Have Elevated Wet-Heat Resistance and Temperature Requirements for Heat Activation
(East Carolina University, 2009-09)
Purified superdormant spores of Bacillus cereus, B. megaterium, and B. subtilis isolated after optimal heat activation of dormant spores and subsequent germination with inosine, D-glucose, or L-valine, respectively, germinate ...
Elastic and inelastic light scattering from single bacterial spores in an optical trap allows the monitoring of spore germination dynamics
(East Carolina University, 2009-05-15)
Raman scattering spectroscopy and elastic light scattering intensity (ESLI) were used to simultaneously measure levels of Ca-dipicolinic acid (CaDPA) and changes in spore morphology and refractive index during germination ...
