Surface Layers of Clostridium difficile Endospores [PDF]
ABSTRACT Clostridium difficile is an important human pathogen and one where the primary cause of disease is due to the transmission of spores. We have investigated the proteins found in the outer coat layers of C. difficile spores of pathogenic strain 630 (CD630). Five coat proteins, CotA, CotB,

Adhering Pasteuria penetrans endospores affect movements of root-knot nematode juveniles
Pasteuria penetrans is a biological control agent of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), preventing root invasion by second-stage juveniles (J2s), and eventually causing females sterility and death. greatest control effects for P. penetrans depend on

Brewing microbiology – bacteria of the genus Clostridium
In most cases, the Clostridium species rank among the sporogenic obligate anaerobes, which are sensitive to bitter hop substances and acidic pH. Thus they rank among the less dangerous contaminants in brewing operations.

Characteristics of Wetting-Induced Bacteriophage Blooms in Biological Soil Crust. [PDF]
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are photosynthetic "hot spots" in deserts and cover ∼12% of the Earth's terrestrial surface, and yet they face an uncertain future given expected shifts in rainfall events.

Endospore pili: Flexible, stiff, and sticky nanofibers
Species belonging to the Bacillus cereus group form endospores (spores) whose surface is decorated with micrometers-long and nanometers-wide endospore appendages (Enas). The Enas have recently been shown to represent a completely novel class of Gram-positive pili.

The Prevalence and Control of Bacillus and Related Spore-Forming Bacteria in the Dairy Industry [PDF]
peer-reviewedMilk produced in udder cells is sterile but due to its high nutrient content, it can be a good growth substrate for contaminating bacteria. The quality of milk is monitored via somatic cell counts and total bacterial counts, with prescribed ...

Failure of non-vacuum steam sterilization processes for dental handpieces [PDF]
Background: Dental handpieces are used in critical and semi-critical operative interventions. Although a number of dental professional bodies recommend that dental handpieces are sterilized between patient use there is a lack of clarity and ...
