88 results about "Bacterial spore" patented technology

A bacterial spore is a spore or spore-like structure produced by bacteria. These include endospores, Akinetes, and spores produced by Actinobacteria and Azotobacter. Spore formation in bacteria is not a method of reproduction but simply a method of surviving unfavourable conditions. They have a number of features: They can tolerate extreme dryness. Some cannot be killed even at subzero temperatures. Some can spread poisonous chemicals, such as the Cry toxin synthesised by Bacillus thuringiensis Bacterial spores are extremely resistant. Spores of tetanus and anthrax, for example, can survive in the soil for many years. The origin of these spores was discovered in the 19th century, when a biologist noticed, under the microscope, a small, round, bright body inside bacterial cells. This survived even when the bacteria were boiled for five minutes. This killed the bacteria, but not the spores. They germinated when conditions were right. Because spores are so resistant, they are highly transmissible. This makes them a very problematic aspect of spore-forming pathogens such as Clostridium difficile.

A method for improving the availability of cyanobacteria and the conversion rate of black soldier fly by ultraviolet treatment

The present invention belongs to the technical field of resource treatment of organic solid waste, and particularly relates to a method for improving the availability of cyanobacteria and the conversion rate of black soldier fly by ultraviolet treatment. The present invention uses a pasteurization process at 65°C for 30 minutes to treat cyanobacteria, which can effectively kill bacterial spores, Escherichia coli and inactivate spoilage enzymes, and helps to improve the availability of cyanobacteria. When using an ultraviolet device to treat cyanobacteria, under the irradiation of high-intensity ultraviolet rays for 30 minutes, the algal toxins are effectively decomposed, so that the anti-nutritional factors in cyanobacteria are effectively reduced. Compared with directly using cyanobacteria, the compounding of wheat bran and cyanobacteria improves the carbon-nitrogen ratio and pore structure of the feed, thereby enhancing the survival rate of black soldier fly, the weight of the produced insects and the reduction rate of cyanobacteria. The present invention has the characteristics of low carbon, no energy consumption and environmental friendliness.
