Abstract:Spores of Bacillus subtilis were produced in the presence of several cationic compounds. Thermal-destruction studies revealed that cationic compounds increased heat resistance of the spores. Of the compounds tested, lysine-rich histone, isolated from calf thymus, afforded the greatest degree of protection against moist heat at 100°.
