Inactivation of bacterial endospores by photocatalytic nanocomposites
Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2005 A novel biocidal photocatalytic nanocomposite, composed of TiO(2) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), was synthesized via wet chemistry followed by a heat treatment. Uniform anatase coatings on MWNTs were successfully obtained with a thickness of a few nanometers.

Potassium ferrate [Fe(VI)] does not mediate self-sterilization of a surrogate mars soil
BMC Microbiology, 2003 Background Martian soil is thought to be enriched with strong oxidants such as peroxides and/or iron in high oxidation states that might destroy biological materials. There is also a high flux of ultraviolet radiation at the surface of Mars.

Detection of bacterial spores with lanthanide-macrocycle binary complexes [PDF]
, 2009 The detection of bacterial spores via dipicolinate-triggered lanthanide luminescence has been improved in terms of detection limit, stability, and susceptibility to interferents by use of lanthanide−macrocycle binary complexes.
