Memory of Germinant Stimuli in Bacterial Spores
Bacterial spores, despite being metabolically dormant, possess the remarkable capacity to detect nutrients and other molecules in their environment through a biochemical sensory apparatus that can trigger spore germination, allowing the return to ...

Combination of supercritical CO2 and high-power ultrasound for the inactivation of fungal and bacterial spores in lipid emulsions [PDF]
For the first time, this study addresses the intensification of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) treatments using high-power ultrasound (HPU) for the inactivation of fungal (Aspergillus niger) and bacterial (Clostridium butyricum) spores in oil-in ...

Research Progress of Cold Plasma-induced Inactivation of Bacterial Spores [PDF]
Spores are the main dormant forms of some bacteria under harsh environment conditions, which are widely distributed in nature. Bacterial spores have a rigid structure, which helps resist to environmental stresses such as heat and ultraviolet radiation ...

Proton dynamics in bacterial spores, a neutron scattering investigation
Results from first neutron scattering experiments on bacterial spores are reported. The elastic intensities and mean square displacements have a non-linear behaviour as function of temperature, which is in agreement with a model presenting more ...

Bacterial Spores in Food: Survival, Emergence, and Outgrowth [PDF]
Spore-forming bacteria are ubiquitous in nature. The resistance properties of bacterial spores lie at the heart of their widespread occurrence in food ingredients and foods. The efficacy of inactivation by food-processing conditions is largely determined by the characteristics of the different types of spores, whereas food composition and storage ...

Superdormant Spores as a Hurdle for Gentle Germination-Inactivation Based Spore Control Strategies [PDF]
Bacterial spore control strategies based on the germination-inactivation principle can lower the thermal load needed to inactivate bacterial spores and thus preserve food quality better.

Emerging Applications of Bacterial Spores in Nanobiotechnology [PDF]
Bacterial spores are robust and dormant life forms with formidable resistance properties, in part, attributable to the multiple layers of protein that encase the spore in a protective and flexible shield.

Progress in Understanding the Molecular Mechanism of Bacterial Spore Germination [PDF]
In response to nutrient limitation, Bacillus and Clostridium can form metabolically dormant spores, which are extremely resistant to a variety of environmental stresses.

High hydrostatic pressure-induced inactivation of bacterial spores [PDF]
High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is the most-widely adopted novel non-thermal technology for the commercial pasteurization of foods. However, HHP-induced inactivation of bacterial spores remains a challenge due their resistance to the treatment limits of ...

Oral vaccination of fish against vibriosis using spore-display technology
Oral vaccines are highly demanded by the aquaculture sector, to allow mass delivery of antigens without using the expensive and labor-intensive injectable vaccines. These later require individual handling of fish, provoking stress-related mortalities.One
