Question 2arrow_forwardThe death of Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores is routinely used to assess the effectiveness of sterilization procedures. In this procedure, endospores are exposed to the sterilization process (e.g., autoclaving) and then plated on germination medium. If sterilization has been successful, no growth occurs. This requires about 2 days. Yung and Ponce have developed a new approach that yields results within 15 minutes after sterilization. Their technique is based on the release of dipicolinic acid (DPA) from the spore coat by germinating cells. DPA release is monitored microscopically after endospores are placed in media containing alanine and terbium ion (Tb31). Alanine triggers germination and Tb31 binds DPA, which then fluoresces green when illuminated with UV light. Design an experiment in which this new method could be shown to be as reliable as the culturebased approach. What other sterilization procedures besides autoclaving could this technique be used to monitor?arrow_forward
