Progress Being Made in War on Bacteria
Bacteriologists at the Hooper Foundation for Medical Research, UC, report bacteria can endure boiling water and refrigerator temperatures for long periods. Tetanus spores resist ninety minutes boiling, botulinus in vegetable juice five and a half hours, related harmless spores eight and a half hours.
