Tests with Double-Aldehyde-Stabilised cells—treated sequentially with pyruvic aldehyde, tannic acid and glutaraldehyde—were more sensitive than tests with the cells treated only with formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde or pyruvic aldehyde, and subsequently tanned., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/jmm/10.1099/00222615-19-1-95
