Rhythmic changes in dry heat resistance of Bacillus subtilis spores after rapid changes in pH

R J Heckly et al. Appl Microbiol. 1975 Apr.

Abstract

Heat resistance of freeze-dried Bacillus subtilis spores varied in a rhythmic manner as a function of time between acidification to about pH 1.5 and freezing. A comparable rapid shift to pH 11 produced little change in resistance to heat.
