However, mutant cells totally deprived of alkaline phosphatase activity held in phosphate-containing media before transfer to seawater showed survival almost as high as the wild type strain, indicating that alkaline phosphatase activity is not the only factor influencing survival. Alkaline phosphatase activity also increased the protection of cells provided by glycine betaine. Survival was enhanced when cells were preincubated in the presence of phosphate or polyphosphate. Thus, the transfer of cells in wastewater could influence their subsequent survival in seawater. Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 1990 Gauthier Michel I.N.S.E.R.M.
