Young's moduli of the heat-inactivated spores. (A) Spores heated at 800°C for 0.1 s; (B) spores heated at 300°C for 10 s; (C) untreated viable spores; (D) graph showing the median modulus (indicated by ×) and the 10th to 90th percentile data ranges (the bottom of the boxed area shows the value for the 10th percentile and the top of the boxed area shows the value for the 90th percentile; based on measurements of ∼100 randomly selected spores). DMTModulus, Derjaguin-Muller-Toporov modulus.
