[Protective effect of D20 in bacteria (E. coli)].
E. coli suspended in D2O showed a better survival than in H2O when the bacteria were treated with various damaging agents like UV, heat and freezing. On the contrary E. coli grown in D2O-containing media - therefore being fully deuterated - were more sensitive than normally grown bacteria.
