Cell-specific cargo delivery using synthetic bacterial spores [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Delivery of cancer therapeutics to non-specific sites decreases treatment efficacy while increasing toxicity. In ovarian cancer, overexpression of the cell surface marker HER2, which several therapeutics target, relates to poor prognosis.

Intranasal Treatment of Ferrets with Inert Bacterial Spores Reduces Disease Caused by a Challenging H7N9 Avian Influenza Virus [PDF]
Vaccines, 2022 Background: Influenza is a respiratory infection that continues to present a major threat to human health, with ~500,000 deaths/year. Continued circulation of epidemic subtypes in humans and animals potentially increases the risk of future pandemics ...

THE COMPOSITION AND STRUCTURE OF BACTERIAL SPORES [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1963 The composition of the insoluble "integuments" and soluble "contents" fractions of spores of four Bacillus species of widely differing heat resistance were compared. Electron microscopy of thin sections was also used to determine and compare the morphological structures in the integument preparations.

A Cell‐Penetrating Peptide‐Derived Fluorescent Probe for Selective Isolation of Bacterial Spores [PDF]
Microbial BiotechnologyIn this study, we identify a peptide discovered through fluorescence‐based screening of a cell‐penetrating peptide (CPP) library that preferentially associates with bacterial spores and evaluate its utility as a fluorescence‐guided tool for spore ...

Bacterial Spores in Food: Survival, Emergence, and Outgrowth [PDF]
Annual Review of Food Science and Technology, 2016 Spore-forming bacteria are ubiquitous in nature. The resistance properties of bacterial spores lie at the heart of their widespread occurrence in food ingredients and foods. The efficacy of inactivation by food-processing conditions is largely determined by the characteristics of the different types of spores, whereas food composition and storage ...

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2017 Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) functionalized with ethylenediamine-lanthanide complexes (Eu-GNPs and Tb-GNPs) were used for the selective fluorescent detection of dipicolinic acid (DPA), a unique biomarker of bacterial spores, in water.

Phosphoproteome dynamics mediate revival of bacterial spores. [PDF]
BMC Biol, 2015 Bacterial spores can remain dormant for decades, yet harbor the exceptional capacity to rapidly resume metabolic activity and recommence life. Although germinants and their corresponding receptors have been known for more than 30 years, the molecular ...

Emerging Applications of Bacterial Spores in Nanobiotechnology [PDF]
Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2003 Bacterial spores are robust and dormant life forms with formidable resistance properties, in part, attributable to the multiple layers of protein that encase the spore in a protective and flexible shield.

Inactivation of bacterial spores by UV-C light
Innovative Food Science and Emerging Technologies, 2013 This investigation evaluates the ability of UV light to inactivate bacterial spores of interest for food preservation. It also evaluates the effect of the absorptivity of the treatment medium on UV lethality and the effect of the simultaneous or ...
