Inactivation effect and mechanism of ultrasound combined with ultraviolet treatment on Bacillus cereus spores

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research
Bacillus cereus is a common foodborne pathogen, and its formation of strongly resistant spores renders the pathogen difficult to eliminate completely using traditional sterilization methods.

Contour and greyscale projection maps of negatively stained wild-type and ΔywdL exosporium crystals.

, 2013
Each map is the average of 5 independent crystal images taken from the respective exosporium preparation showing (A, B) B. cereus wild-type and (C, D) ΔywdL exosporium crystals. p3 symmetry-averaging has been applied in both cases.

A Novel Bacillus thuringiensis Cry-Like Protein from a Rare Filamentous Strain Promotes Crystal Localization within the Exosporium

, 2013
Mutation of a novel cry-like gene (cry256) from Bacillus thuringiensis resulted in a protein crystal, normally located within the spore\u27s exosporium, being found predominately outside the exosporium.
