Raman spectroscopic study of bacterial endospores
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2007Endospores and endospore-forming bacteria were studied by Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectra were recorded from Bacillus licheniformis LMG 7634 at different steps during growth and spore formation, and from spore suspensions obtained from diverse Bacillus and Paenibacillus strains cultured in different conditions (growth media, temperature, peroxide ...

The Longevity of Thermoactinomycete Endospores in Natural Substrates
Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1977Occupational debris from beneath the Roman fort Vindolanda, and lake sediments cored from Seamere in East Anglia were examined for the presence of viable Thermoactinomyces endospores. Up to 10 4 viable endospores/g dry wt were recovered from the ...

Bacterial endospores and their significance in stress resistance
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2002In terms of resistance to extreme environmental stresses, the bacterial spore represents a pinnacle of evolution. Spores are highly resistant to a wide variety of physical stresses such as: wet and dry heat, UV and gamma radiation, oxidizing agents, chemicals, and extremes of both vacuum and ultrahigh hydrostatic pressure.

Structure and Assembly of the Bacterial Endospore Coat
Methods, 2000Many biological processes are mediated through the action of multiprotein complexes, often assembled at specific cellular locations. Bacterial endospores for example, are encased in a proteinaceous coat, which confers resistance to lysozyme and harsh chemicals and influences the spore response to germinants.

Initiation of endospore formation in Clostridium acetobutylicum
Anaerobe, 2004Endospore formation in bacilli and clostridia shows remarkable similarities in morphology as well as in physiological and molecular biological cellular events. Major differences are the formation of clostridial stage cells and granulose accumulation in clostridia. In both genera, a cascade of sigma factors is activated after septation (by help of sigma(

Differential Staining of Bacteria: Endospore Stain
Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2009AbstractEndospore production is a very important characteristic of some bacteria, allowing them to resist adverse environmental conditions such as desiccation, chemical exposure, extreme heat, radiation, etc. The identification of endospores is also very important for the clinical microbiologist who is analyzing a patient's body fluid or tissue—there ...

Display of proteins on Bacillus subtilis endospores
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2009The targeting and anchoring of heterologous proteins and peptides to the outer surface of bacteriophages and cells is becoming increasingly important, and has been employed as a tool for fundamental and applied research in microbiology, molecular biology, vaccinology, and biotechnology. Less known are endospores or spores produced by some Gram-positive

The Biochemistry of the Bacterial Endospore
1967Publisher Summary Spore is considered one of the most complex structures formed by single-celled bacteria. Sporogenesis involves a special type of cell division and its further development involves an integrated sequence of new biochemical reactions under genetic control.

[Actinomyces thermovulgaris endospores].
Mikrobiologiia, 1978It has been established for the first time that autolysis observed when Actinomyces thermovulgaris T-54 is cultivated on liquid media of various composition is caused by the formation of submerged spores. These, in contrast to exospores of the majority of the actinomycetes, are endospores according to their structure and the following criteria ...
