Aims The objective of this study was to determine the effects of Ca-dipicolinic acid (CaDPA), cortex-lytic enzymes (CLEs), the inner membrane (IM) CaDPA channel and coat on spore killing by dodecylamine. Methods and results Bacillus subtilis spores, wild-type, CaDPA-less due to the absence of DPA synthase or the IM CaDPA channel, or lacking CLEs, were dodecylamine-treated and spore viability and vital staining were all determined. Dodecylamine killed intact wild-type and CaDPA-less B. subtilis spores similarly, and also killed intact
