  • Title: Photoprotection by dipicolinate against inactivation of bacterial spores with ultraviolet light.
    Author: Grecz N, Tang T, Frank HA.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1973 Feb; 113(2):1058-60. PubMed ID: 4632312.
    Abstract:
    The resistance of three types of Bacillus cereus T spores to ultraviolet radiation corresponded to their dipicolinic acid (DPA) content. Photoprotection against ultraviolet light was observed in DPA-containing spores and in DPA-less spores irradiated through calcium dipicolinate.
