Endospores are an important component of a tetanus infection because endospore structure protect the bacteria against disinfectant or any other defense mechanism of body that would usually kill other non-spore forming bacteria. Therefore, Clostridium tetani stays in dormant state until proper conditions become available to cause the bacterium to switch from dormant to live form.
