Abstract
|
|
|
Cadmium ions are bacteriocidal resulting in exponential killing that starts immediately after exposure. We have shown that pretreatment with sublethal concentration of cadmium induces cadmium tolerance. Protection against cadmium killing can also be obtained by preincubation at elevated temperatures, known to induce the heat shock respoce. However in contrast to pretratment at elevated temperatures, exposure to sublethal cadmium concentration dose not induce thermotolerance.
