Killing of bacillus spores by aqueous dissolved oxygen, ascorbic acid, and copper ions.
An approach to decontamination of biological endospores is discussed. Specifically, the performance of an aqueous modified Fenton reagent is examined. A modified Fenton reagent formulation of cupric chloride, ascorbic acid, and sodium chloride is shown to be an effective sporicide under aerobic conditions. The traditional Fenton reaction involves the conversion of hydrogen peroxide to hydroxyl ...
متن کاملEffects of Different Times of Glutaraldehyde 2% on Bacillus subtilis Spores (In Vitro)
Background: Due to the importance of disinfectant and sterilization of dental instruments, in total, 14%–28% of dentists, 13% of assistants, and 17% of healthcare workers (HCWs) have been subjected to the hepatitis B virus (HBV), and more than 200 healthcare providers (HCPs) pass away annually in the United States from HBV infection catched from their work place. ...
متن کاملL-amino acid dehydrogenases in Bacillus subtilis spores.
The presence of two kinds of l-amino acid dehydrogenase in resting spores of Bacillus subtilis was indicated. One of them was l-alanine dehydrogenase, which used only l-alanine as a substrate, and the other was nonspecific dehydrogenase, which used l-valine, l-isoleucine, l-leucine, and l-alanine (slightly) as substrates. Several properties of these dehydrogenases were compared.
متن کاملEnvironmental Persistence of Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus subtilis Spores
There is a lack of data for how the viability of biological agents may degrade over time in different environments. In this study, experiments were conducted to determine the persistence of Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus subtilis spores on outdoor materials with and without exposure to simulated sunlight, using ultraviolet (UV)-A/B radiation. Spores were inoculated onto glass, wood, concrete, ...
متن کاملResistance of Bacillus subtilis Spores to Inactivation
A statistical evaluation of viable count procedures utilized for obtaining treatment survival curve data for Bacillus subtilis NCTC 8236 spores is described. Within the various recovery conditions tested, incubation on nutrient agar containing 1% dextrose for 48 hr at 37 C was found to promote the highest count of viable spores surviving a variety of bactericidal treatments involving gamma irra...
