Abstract
On the basis of high DNA-DNA reassociation values and confirmatory automate d RiboPrint analysis, two aerobic spore-forming strains hitherto automated RiboPrint analysis, two aerobic spore-forming strains hitherto allocated to Bacillus subtilis and used as bioindicators (DSM 675, hot-air sterilizatio n control; DSM 2277, ethylene oxide sterilization control) are reclassified as Bacillus atrophaeus.
