Germination of bacterial endospores with calcium and dipicolinic acid.

H RIEMANN, Z J ORDAL.   

Abstract

Aerobic and anaerobic bacterial endospores can be germinated if calcium chloride and dipicolinic acid are added to well-washed suspensions. Maximum germination is obtained when the calcium and acid are present in a molar ratio of one or more. This suggests that the 1:1 chelate of calcium and dipicolinic acid is the agent that induces germination.
