The spore resistance of bacilli isolated from extreme environments, cold (Antarctic soils) and hot (shallow hydrothermal vents of Eolian Islands, Italy), was evaluated towards environmental stressors (wet- and dry-heat, low and high pH values), sporicidal treatments and stresses simulating space-environments (UV-C and X-rays irradiations, desiccations by low pressure, exposition to oxidizing agents and low pressure plasma), as those from the planet surface of Europa (the satellite of Jupiter), Enceladus (the satellite of Saturn) and Mars.

Abstract

The spore resistance of bacilli isolated from extreme environments, cold (Antarctic soils) and hot (shallow hydrothermal vents of Eolian Islands, Italy), was evaluated towards environmental stressors (wet- and dry-heat, low and high pH values), sporicidal treatments and stresses simulating space-environments (UV-C and X-rays irradiations, desiccations by low pressure, exposition to oxidizing agents and low pressure plasma), as those from the planet surface of Europa (the satellite of Jupiter), Enceladus (the satellite of Saturn) and Mars.
