Correlations between available primary amines, endospore coat thickness, and alkaline glutaraldehyde sensitivity for spores of select Bacillus species

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2020
Alkaline glutaraldehyde (GTA) is a high‐level chemical disinfectant/sterilant and has a broad microbial kill spectrum. The precise antimicrobial mechanism of GTA remains debated.

Endospore Inactivation by Emerging Technologies: A Review of Target Structures and Inactivation Mechanisms.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Food Science and Technology, 2019
Recent developments in preservation technologies allow for the delivery of food with nutritional value and superior taste. Of special interest are low-acid, shelf-stable foods in which the complete control or inactivation of bacterial endospores is the ...

Use of endospore-forming bacteria as an active oxygen scavenger in plastic packaging materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this study the use of heat resistant endospore-forming aerobic microorganisms of the genus Bacillus amyloliquefaciens as an active oxygen scavenger in multilayer PET bottles was evaluated.

Sterilization of Surgical Tools: Removing Bacterial Endospores with a Combination of Povidone-iodine, Chlorhexidine Gluconate, Ethanol, and Methanol

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019
A combination of chemicals including povidone-iodine, chlorhexidine gluconate, ethanol, and methanol were used to remove Bacillus thuringiensis endospores from surgical tools.

The Bacillus cereus GerN and GerT protein homologs have distinct roles in spore germination and outgrowth, respectively [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The GerT protein of Bacillus cereus shares 74% amino acid identity with its homolog GerN. The latter is a Na+/H+-K+ 19 antiporter that is required for normal spore germination in inosine.

Visualizing germination of microbiota endospores in the mammalian gut

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2022
Transmission of bacterial endospores between the environment and people and the following germination in vivo play critical roles in both the deadly infections of some bacterial pathogens and the stabilization of the commensal microbiotas in humans.

Cellular distribution of a feminizing microsporidian parasite: a strategy for transovarial transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The cellular distribution of a vertically transmitted, feminizing microsporidian was followed in its host Gammarus duebeni. In adult females the parasite was restricted to gonadal tissue, in particular primary and secondary follicle cells.

Islandinium pacificum sp. nov., a new dinoflagellate cyst from the upper Quaternary of the northeast Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Round brown process-bearing cysts (RBPC) produced by dinoflagellates (Dinophyceae) occur as an important part of assemblage diversities in seafloor sediments worldwide. Here a new species, Islandinium pacificum, is described from surface sediment samples

Detection of Bacterial Endospores in Soil by Terbium Fluorescence [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, 2011
Spore formation is a survival mechanism of microorganisms when facing unfavorable environmental conditions resulting in “dormant” states. We investigated the occurrence of bacterial endospores in soils from various locations including grasslands (pasture, meadow), allotment gardens, and forests, as well as fluvial sediments.

The Bacillus subtilis endospore crust: protein interaction network, architecture and glycosylation state of a potential glycoprotein layer

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2019
The endospore of Bacillus subtilis is formed intracellularly upon nutrient starvation and is encased by proteinaceous shells. The outermost layer, the crust, is a postulated glycoprotein layer that is composed of six proteins: CotV, W, X, Y, Z and CgeA ...
