Clostridium sordellii outer spore proteins maintain spore structural integrity and promote bacterial clearance from the gastrointestinal tract.

PLoS Pathogens, 2018
Bacterial spores play an important role in disease initiation, transmission and persistence. In some species, the exosporium forms the outermost structure of the spore and provides the first point of contact between the spore and the environment.

Heat Inactivation of Embedded Bacterial Spores [PDF]

, 2019
Bacterial spores embedded in a polymer matrix may be up to 10 times more resilient than spores found on the surface of a material. The resiliency of these spores could result in lower than expected microbial reduction using current standards.

Role of germinant receptors in Caco-2 cell-initiated germination of Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 endospores [PDF]

, 2009
Spores obtained from Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 and mutant strains lacking each of seven germinant receptor operons were exposed to differentiated Caco-2 cells and monitored for germination.

Growth and survival of spore forming Bacillus cereus in human milk exposed to different processing, and storage conditions

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Human milk (HM) is the preferred nutrition for all infants, including preterm and low‐birth‐weight infants, but it may still pose infectious risks even after pasteurization. Data on the behavior of Bacillus cereus in HM are limited. We therefore investigated the growth and survival of B.

Detection of bacterial spores with lanthanide-macrocycle binary complexes [PDF]

, 2009
The detection of bacterial spores via dipicolinate-triggered lanthanide luminescence has been improved in terms of detection limit, stability, and susceptibility to interferents by use of lanthanide−macrocycle binary complexes.

Microbial communities and functional diversity in seafood

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional diversity encompasses ecosystem processes that enhance adaptability to environmental change. This study explores the diversity of microorganisms associated with seafood. In this paper, we present our knowledge of microbial diversity in relation to seafood.

Immobilization of bacterial spores using eggshells nanoparticles and their effective role in concrete bio-healing process: novel approach

BMC Biotechnology
Background Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) has gained increasing attention as a sustainable bioengineering strategy for improving the strength and bio-healing capacity of concrete. Through biologically mediated CaCO₃ formation,

Ecofriendly management of anthracnose on avocado caused by Colletotrichum perseae in the Mediterranean basin

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Colletotrichum perseae, recently reported in Europe, causes stem and twig lesions and dieback, and fruit rot on avocado in several countries. Due to EU severe restrictions, there is an urgent need for sustainable alternatives to fungicides.
