    Abstract:

    The D-values of Bacillus pumilus spores on various devices ranged from 0.14 to 0.23 Mrads. The majority of devices displayed D-values equal to or less than the value obtained on filter paper. Increased resistivity was also encountered.

    Physical Methods for Controlling Microbial Growth: Temperature

    Heat is a widely used method to control microbial growth by targeting and denaturing cellular proteins, thereby killing or inactivating microbes. This method's effectiveness is quantified using parameters such as the thermal death point (TDP), thermal death time (TDT), and decimal reduction time (D value). TDP represents the lowest temperature at which all microorganisms in a liquid suspension are eliminated within 10 minutes, whereas TDT is the time necessary to achieve sterilization at a...
