Control of whirling disease (Myxosoma cerebralis): Use of methylene blue staining as a possible indicator of effect of heat on spores
January 1, 1977
Methylene blue staining (0.08 %) was used to determine efficiency of heat treatment in killing spores of Myxosoma cerebralis. Nearly all spores heated at 90°C for 10 min and 70°C for 100 min became stained giving presumptive evidence that they were killed.
