Monoclonal antibodies for use in detection of Bacillus and Clostridium spores.
Five monoclonal antibodies against bacterial spores of Bacillus cereus T and Clostridium sporogenes PA3679 were developed. Two antibodies (B48 and B183) were selected for their reactivity with B. cereus T spores, two (C33 and C225) were selected for their reactivity with C. sporogenes spores, and one (D89) was selected for its reactivity with both B. cereus and C sporogenes spores. The isotypes...
متن کاملRelationship of dipicolinic acid content in spores of Bacillus cereus T to ultraviolet and gamma radiation resistance.
Spores of Bacillus cereus T lacking dipicolinic acid showed a statistically significant reduction in resistance to ultraviolet and gamma radiation as compared with spores with high dipicolinic acid content.
متن کاملCell-wall lytic enzymes at sporulation and spore germination in Bacillus species.
When washed sporulating cells of Bacillus cereus were incubated in buffer a t 37" in the presence of toluene, a partial autolysis occurred resulting in the freeing of mature and immature spores. The autolysate contained lytic enzymes which attacked vegetative cells and cell-wall preparations, releasing hexosaminecontaining peptides of characteristic constitution. The most active enzyme preparat...
متن کاملRapid characterization of spores of Bacillus cereus group bacteria by matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
Matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry was used to characterize the spores of 14 microorganisms of the Bacillus cereus group. This group includes the four Bacillus species B. anthracis, B. cereus, B. mycoides, and B. thuringiensis. MALDI mass spectra obtained from whole bacterial spores showed many similarities between the species, except for B. myc...
متن کاملCalcium dipicolinic acid-induced germination of Bacillus cereus spores.
Keynan, A. (University of Wisconsin, Madison) and H. O. Halvorson. Calcium dipicolinic acid-induced germination of Bacillus cereus spores. J. Bacteriol. 83:100-105. 1962.-The germination of spores of Bacillus cereus strain T can be initiated by calcium dipicolinic acid. The kinetics of germination are characterized by a long lag period followed by a rapid loss of refractility. The lag period di...
