| Abstract: | A fraction increasing the resistance of resting spores to UV-irradiation and high temperature has been isolated from the culture medium at the stage of B. cereus st. 96 spore initiation. Amino acid analysis, gas chromatography, electrophoresis, and TLC of the products of acidic and alkaline hydrolysis of the isolated fraction demonstrated that the active component of the fraction was the lipoteichoic acid. |
