The Conserved Spore Coat Protein SpoVM Is Largely Dispensable in Clostridium difficile Spore Formation

open access: yesmSphere, 2017
The spore-forming bacterial pathogen Clostridium difficile is a leading cause of health care-associated infections in the United States. In order for this obligate anaerobe to transmit infection, it must form metabolically dormant spores prior to exiting

Antibiotic-Induced Alterations of the Gut Microbiota Alter Secondary Bile Acid Production and Allow for Clostridium difficile Spore Germination and Outgrowth in the Large Intestine

open access: yesMsphere, 2016
Antibiotics alter the gastrointestinal microbiota, allowing for Clostridium difficile infection, which is a significant public health problem. Changes in the structure of the gut microbiota alter the metabolome, specifically the production of secondary ...

Radiological Findings of a 57-Year-Old Male with Follicular Lymphoma of the Mandible

open access: yesProceedings of Singapore Healthcare, 2012
A 57-year-old male with follicular lymphoma of mandible presented with clinical and radiographic features suggestive of osteomyelitis. He was treated for his ‘infection’ over three years.

The Bactericidal Activity and Spore Inhibition Effect of Manuka Honey against Clostridioides Difficile

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Clostridioides difficile colitis overgrowth occurs when the normal gut microbiome becomes disrupted, often due to antibiotics. Effective treatment remains elusive, due partly to the persistence of its spores in the gut.

Strain-Dependent Cheese Spoilage Potential of Clostridium tyrobutyricum

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Clostridium tyrobutyricum, a Gram-positive, anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium, is considered as one of the main causative agents for spoilage of hard and semihard cheeses. Growth of C.

Controlled Release of Biological Control Agents for Preventing Aflatoxin Contamination from Starch–Alginate Beads

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
For the wise use of fungal biocontrol and metalaxyl fungicide, starch–alginate-based formulations have been developed by encapsulating metalaxyl and non-toxigenic Aspergillus flavus spores simultaneously in the form of microspheres using calcium ...

Fern spore viability considered in relation to the duration of the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) impact winter. A contribution to the discussion

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica, 2019
The Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary Chicxulub impact is supposed to have produced a nearly decade-long impact winter which resulted in a mass-extinction event among dicot angiosperms but which left pteridophytes comparatively unaffected.

The dynamic spore [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003
Most bacteria can, at least to some degree, hunker down during periods of stress and wait for good times to return. No cells, however, do this as effectively as those Bacilli and Clostridia that form spores. Dormant cells produced by these bacteria can survive most environmental challenges found on earth and even a few in outer space and can remain ...

Phenotypic memory in Bacillus subtilis links dormancy entry and exit by a spore quantity-quality tradeoff

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Some bacteria, such as Bacillus subtilis, withstand starvation by forming dormant spores that revive when nutrients become available. Although sporulation and spore revival jointly determine survival in fluctuating environments, the relationship between ...
