Improving Dispersion of Bacterial Endospores for Enumeration

Precise enumeration of spores is crucial for accurate evaluation of spore survival in the presence of inactivating agents or extreme environmental conditions. Bacterial endospores tend to agglomerate, leading to low estimates of spore numbers. We have shown that addition of SDS to diluent used in co...
