Abstract
Abstract
THE most commonly accepted criteria of bacterial spore germination are loss of heat resistance, acquisition of stainability by simple stains and a change in absorbance (Wynne & Foster, 1948; Powell, 1951; Pulvertaft & Haynes, 1951; Levinson & Sevag, 1953). To these might be added a decrease in resistance to certain germicides. Although it has been suggested that some of these changes occur simultaneously (Campbell, 1957), most of the evidence for this is qualitative rather than quantitative.
