Bacterial Viability in Self-Healing Concrete: A Case Study of Non-Ureolytic Bacillus Species
Cracking is an inevitable feature of concrete, typically leading to corrosion of the embedded steel reinforcement and massive deterioration because of the freezing–thawing cycles.

Catalytic materials enabled by a programmable assembly of synthetic polymers and engineered bacterial spores [PDF]
Natural biological materials are formed by self-assembly processes and catalyze a myriad of reactions. Here, we report a programmable molecular assembly of designed synthetic polymers with engineered bacterial spores. This self-assembly process is driven

Fast Viability Assessment of Clostridium Spores: Survival in Extreme Environments [PDF]
Bacterial endospores are formed in genera such as Bacillus and Clostridium in response to adverse environmental changes. Endospores have remarkable resistance to various extreme conditions and can remain dormant for extended periods of time.

Impact of sorbic acid on germinant receptor-dependent and -independent germination pathways in Bacillus cereus [PDF]
Amino acid- and inosine-induced germination of Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 spores was reversibly inhibited in the presence of 3 mM undissociated sorbic acid. Exposure to high hydrostatic pressure, Ca-dipicolinic acid (DPA), and bryostatin, an activator of

Superdormant Spores as a Hurdle for Gentle Germination-Inactivation Based Spore Control Strategies
Bacterial spore control strategies based on the germination-inactivation principle can lower the thermal load needed to inactivate bacterial spores and thus preserve food quality better.

Detection of Aerobic Bacterial Endospores: From Air Sampling, Sterilization Validation to Astrobiology [PDF]
Bacterial endospores are formed in genera such as Bacillus and Clostridium in times of incipient stresses. Derivative of their remarkable resistance and ubiquity, endospores are delivery vehicles for anthrax attack, biological indicators for checking ...

Transcriptional analysis of temporal gene expression in germinating Clostridium difficile 630 endospores. [PDF]
Clostridium difficile is the leading cause of hospital acquired diarrhoea in industrialised countries. Under conditions that are not favourable for growth, the pathogen produces metabolically dormant endospores via asymmetric cell division.
