During research efforts to develop a standardized method for enumerating spores in dairy powders, the dairy powder–associated thermophilic sporeformer Anoxybacillus flavithermus was discovered growing in uninoculated control plates of tryptic soy agar (TSA) supplemented with 1% (w/v) starch, after incubation at thermophilic (55☌) growth temperatures. ![]() Spores produced by these bacteria can survive harsh environmental conditions encountered during food processing and have been implicated in food spoilage. Thermophilic spore-forming bacteria are found ubiquitously in natural environments and, therefore, are present in a number of agricultural food products. ![]()
