THE COMPOSITION AND STRUCTURE OF BACTERIAL SPORES [PDF]
The composition of the insoluble "integuments" and soluble "contents" fractions of spores of four Bacillus species of widely differing heat resistance were compared. Electron microscopy of thin sections was also used to determine and compare the morphological structures in the integument preparations.

Detection of Bacterial Spores with Lanthanide−Macrocycle Binary Complexes
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.

Digital photocorrosion biosensing of Bacillus cereus group spores
Monitoring pathogenic bacteria in anthropogenic and natural water reservoirs remains a major challenge for health authorities, requiring the development of rapid, portable, low-labor, and cost-effective detection methods.

Quantitative and Sensitive RNA Based Detection of Bacillus Spores
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 ...

Monitoring deactivation processes of bacterial spores using fluorescence spectroscopy
There is a need for time efficient evaluation methods to discriminate between viable and dead bacterial spores. In this work, the potential to use the autofluorescence from spore suspensions for evaluation of spore deactivation processes is investigated.

Surface appendages of bacterial spores [PDF]
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

Amphiphilic non‐isocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) coatings containing reactive hydrophobic poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and hydrophilic methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG) prepolymers for marine antifouling (AF) and fouling‐release (FR) applications were investigated. The coatings were evaluated with a set of representative marine foulants.
