Self-repairing of shrinkage crack in mortar containing microencapsulated bacterial spores

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
The purpose of this research work was to evaluate the efficacy of microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) method in shrinkage crack repairing. Portland cement was combined with sand, bacterial spores, water, and nutrients to prepare self-healing

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal spores host bacteria that affect nutrient biodynamics and biocontrol of soil-borne plant pathogens

Biology Open, 2011
Summary The aim of this research was to isolate and characterize bacteria from spores of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). We designated these bacteria ‘probable endobacteria’ (PE). Three bacterial strains were isolated from approximately 500 spores of

Effects of Different Bacteriostats on the Dynamic Germination of Clostridium perfringens Spores

Foods, 2023
Bacteriostats, as chemical substances that inhibit bacterial growth, are widely used in the sterilization process; however, their effects on spindle spores are unclear.

Research Progress of Cold Plasma-induced Inactivation of Bacterial Spores

Shipin gongye ke-ji
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 ...

Quantitative and Sensitive RNA Based Detection of Bacillus Spores

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The fast and reliable detection of bacterial spores is of great importance and still remains a challenge. Here we describe a direct RNA based diagnostic method for the specific detection of viable bacterial spores which does not depends on an enzymatic ...

Evaluation of Microencapsulation Techniques for MICP Bacterial Spores Applied in Self-Healing Concrete

Scientific Reports, 2019
Concrete cracks must be repaired promptly in order to prevent structural damage and to prolong the structural life of the building (or other such construction). Biological self-healing concrete is a recent alternative technology involving the biochemical

Application of modified-alginate encapsulated carbonate producing bacteria in concrete: a promising strategy for crack self-healing

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Self-healing concrete holds promising benefits to reduce the cost for concrete maintenance and repair as cracks are autonomously repaired without any human intervention.

Surface appendages of bacterial spores [PDF]

Molecular Microbiology, 2006
SummaryBacilli and Clostridia generate dormant, highly resistant cells, called spores, in response to stress. Spores of many species are decorated by morphologically diverse structures of unknown function called appendages that have yet to be studied at the molecular level. In this issue, Walker et al. employ reverse genetics to identify genes encoding
