Combined effects of ionizing-irradiation and different environments on Clostridium botulinum type E spores

We examined the combined effects of γ-radiation (24 °C) on spores of Clostridium botulinum-type Eklund strain suspended in different gas-saturated Na-phosphate buffer in absence or presence of protectors or sensitizers. Response surface methodology (RSM) was also used to ascertain the effects of rad...

Zusammenfassung:	We examined the combined effects of γ-radiation (24 °C) on spores of Clostridium botulinum-type Eklund strain suspended in different gas-saturated Na-phosphate buffer in absence or presence of protectors or sensitizers. Response surface methodology (RSM) was also used to ascertain the effects of radiation on the recovery of spores using a medium containing various levels of NaCl or Na-thioglycollate. The former (
