A fluorescence spectroscopic method for rapid detection of bacterial endospores: Proof of concept
Current spore detection methods rely on culture techniques, with limitations of time, efficiency, and sensitivity. The bacterial spore coat contains calcium dipicolinic acid (CaDPA) as a major constituent, which could serve as a biomarker for bacterial endospores. We report proof of concept for a ra...
