INFLUENCE OF CERTAIN CHEMICAL FACTORS IN GERMINATION OF SPORE CELLS OF BACILLUS CEREUS

Abstract

                                Among the various chemicals added glucose, casamino acid, alanine, aspartic acid and glycine showed higher germination of B. cereus spores. Among the positive germinants which were tested in milk all of them showed marked improvement in promoting the germination of spore cells of B. cereus. The most positive germinant among these was L-alanine which as a result of enhancing the gormination of B. cereus increases the keeping quality of heat treated milk to 30 hours at room temperature.
