[bionet.genome.arabidopsis] sterilization

LARRINUA_IGNACIO_M@GATEWAY.LILLY.COM (06/24/91)

I recently bought some Columbia seed from Lehle Seeds.
It is contaminated (probably) with a spore forming
bacteria such that bleach sterilization even to the point
that the seeds are dead do not eliminate these bacteria.
Does anyone ahave an alternative sterilization procedure
that gets rid of spore forming bacteria?

Thanks
