Relative Humidity and the Killing of Bacteria: The Survival of Damp Serratia marcescens in Air
AUTOR(ES)
Bateman, J. B.
RESUMO
The viability of washed moist cells of Serratia marcescens after storage has been measured in relation to variations in the prior treatment of the cells and in conditions of storage. The factors considered were: (i) water content during storage; (ii) method of arriving at water content (partial drying in vacuum or freeze-drying and addition of water); (iii) presence or absence of air during storage.
