EFFECT OF PHENOL ON BACILLUS SUBTILIS SPORES AT ELEVATED  TEMPERATURES.
The nature of the recovery medium is shown to influence the number of Bacillus subtilis spores which, after exposure to 2.5 or 5% phenol at high temperatures, can produce a visible colony. Higher survivor counts were obtained in nutrient agar containing L-alanine and D-glucose than in plain nutrient agar.
