Targeting the Impossible: A Review of New Strategies against Endospores
Endospore-forming bacteria are ubiquitous, and their endospores can be present in food, in domestic animals, and on contaminated surfaces. Many spore-forming bacteria have been used in biotechnological applications, while others are human pathogens ...

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 ...

Two methods for isolation of endophytic and edaphic Bacillus spp. from sugarcane fields
: Bacillus has been widely studied and used for the control of pests and diseases. The adapted protocol proposed by POLANCZYK (2004) proved to be more efficient than the one by the World Health Organization (WHO, 1985) to isolate edaphic strains of ...

Unique relationships between phages and endospore-forming hosts
As part of their survival strategy under harsh environmental conditions, endospore-forming bacteria can trigger a sporulation developmental program. Although the regulatory cascades that precisely control the transformation of vegetative bacteria into ...

Initial butyrate producers during infant gut microbiota development are endospore formers [PDF]
The acquisition of the infant gut microbiota is key to establishing a host-microbiota symbiosis. Microbially produced metabolites tightly interact with the immune system, and the fermentation-derived short-chain fatty acid butyrate is considered an ...

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.
