| pubmed-article:4086408 | pubmed:abstractText | A simple and accurate technique for the determination of the heat resistance of spores is described. The technique combines a modified capillary tube method with a solid heating block. The come-up time of spore suspensions was found to be short and simple and accurate technique is suggested for the correction of the come-up times. Experimental results are presented for the destruction of spores of Bacillus stearothermophilus at 120 degrees which indicates the accuracy and reproducibility of the new method. | lld:pubmed |
