Tailing of survivor curves was observed for Clostridium sporogenes PA 3679 and Cl. botulinum 62A spores heated whilst suspended in edible oils, but not for the same spores suspended in buffer (pH 7.2) or mineral oil or for Bacillus cereus F4165/75 spores suspended in buffer or oils. The tailing cannot be ascribed to a genetic or developmental heterogeneity in the resistance of the spore population or to a heterogeneity of the treatment severity during heating. Heat adaptation due to the release of protective factor(s), to the selection for resistant spores or to the diffusion of oil constituents inside the spore protoplast to protect key molecules from heat denaturation was also ruled out. The tailing can be ascribed to spore clumping during the course of heating or to a heterogeneity in heat resistance of germination system(s) within spores, concurrently with the activation of a dormant germination system. It is probably caused by some oleic acid containing triglycerides.
