Effect of high temperatures on viability of desiccated and undesiccated cells. Desiccated cells (black bars) were dried anaerobically, and undesiccated cells (gray bars) were grown in liquid medium and pelleted immediately prior to incubation at different temperatures for 1 h. Survival is based on an MPN estimation of viable cells per gram (dry weight) of cell material. Values are means and standard deviations for four replicate culture samples.
