Example sentences for: endospores
How can you use “endospores” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Bacterial endospores are a prime example of resistant dormancy structures, and recent research indicates that such dormant forms of bacteria can survive for even millions of years, under appropriate conditions.
From work reported here, it appears that environmentally robust endospores, if delivered to Mars on spacecraft, could survive for extended periods of time in the cold, dry, preserving environment of Mars, despite the presence of strong oxidants in the soil.
Results of spore survival over time in the control and ferrate(VI)-enriched or permanganate-enriched Mars surrogate soils under simulated Martian environmental conditions are shown in Figure 3. The endospores survived exposure to high levels of ferrate under the imposed conditions for the duration of the experiment (up to six weeks).
It is of course possible that at very low CO 2 pressures endospores might be more sensitive to their environmental conditions than at one atmosphere.
Also, endospores were not killed by transient exposure to ferrate in the presence of water at room temperature.
