Water Permeability of Bacterial Spores and the Concept of a Contractile Cortex.

J C Lewis, N S Snell, H K Burr.   

Abstract

Assumption of a water-impermeable coat on bacterial spores is inconsistent with known permeabilities of organic materials. A low water content may arise through compressive contraction of the cortex during spore maturation.
