Levels of Ca2+-Dipicolinic Acid in Individual Bacillus Spores Determined Using Microfluidic Raman Tweezers
Huang, Shu-shi; Chen, De; Pelczar, Patricia L.; Vepachedu, Venkata Ramana; Setlow, Peter; Li, Yong-Qing (East Carolina University, 2007-07)Pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (dipicolinic acid [DPA]) in a 1:1 chelate with calcium ion (Ca-DPA) comprises 5 to 15% of the dry weight of spores of Bacillus species. Ca-DPA is important in spore resistance to many ...
