Effects of added germination agents on loss of optical density in electron-irradiated spores [PDF]
Spores of Bacillus megaterium ATCC 14581, subjected to partial-cell iradiation, were exposed to either lysozyme, H2O2, or glucose in an attempt to reduce or eliminate the nonmonotonic behavior in curves of percentage of germination versus energy, obtained when such spores were resuspended in phosphate buffer alone. Except at the lower doses.

Rapid inactivation of Penicillium digitatum spores using high-density nonequilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma [PDF]
A promising, environmentally safe method for inactivating fungal spores of Penicillium digitatum, a difficult-to-inactivate food spoilage microorganism, was developed using a high-density nonequilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma (NEAPP). The NEAPP employing Ar gas had a high electron density on the order of 1015 cm−3. The spores were successfully and
