RESUMO
High-resolution scanning electron probe X-ray microanalysis had been employed to examine elemental distributions in freeze-dried cryosections of Bacillus coagulans spores. Calcium, manganese, and phosphorus were concentrated in the protoplast and the coat. Iron was found in the coat but not in the protoplast, whereas the silicon seen on the coat of other spore species was absent. Sulfur was present in the coat, but was distributed over a broader area than the other elements, which suggested that phosphorus and the metal ions were located in the outer coat layer.
