Aqueous formaldehyde is shown to exert both sporostatic and sporocidal effects on Bacillus subtilis spores. The sporostatic effect is a result of the reversible inhibition of spore germination occasioned by aqueous formaldehyde; the sporocidal effect is due to temperature-dependent inactivation of these spores in aqueous formaldehyde. The physicochemical state of formaldehyde in solution provides a framework with which to interpret both the sporostatic and sporocidal properties of aqueous formaldehyde.
已证明甲醛水溶液对枯草芽孢杆菌孢子具有抑芽孢作用和杀芽孢作用。抑芽孢作用是甲醛水溶液可逆抑制孢子萌发的结果；杀芽孢作用是由于这些孢子在甲醛水溶液中因温度依赖性而失活。溶液中甲醛的物理化学状态为解释甲醛水溶液的抑芽孢和杀芽孢特性提供了一个框架。
