Dataset includes data from each experiment conducted in the pilot-scale testing. Each sheet of the Excel file pertains to each test. A data dictionary is included in the first sheet. In each sheet there are microbiological data (colony forming units) for each test and positive control coupon used in the study. Also shown is the calculation of decontamination efficacy (log10 reduction). This dataset is associated with the following publication: Wood, J., W. Calfee, S. Ryan, L. Mickelsen, M. Clayton, and V. Rastogi. A Simple Decontamination Approach Using Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor for Bacillus anthracis Spore Inactivation. JOURNAL OF APPLIED MICROBIOLOGY. Blackwell Publishing, Malden, MA, USA, 121(6): 1603-1615, (2016).
Quarterly Sampling Reports for antimicrobial resistance, specifically in cecal and product. Cecal reports consists of data for Salmonella, Campylobacter, E.coli, and Enterococcus. Product reports consists of data for Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Escherichia coli O157:H7 and non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). All reports are updated quarterly. See the FSIS website for additional information.
Data from small lab scale tests conducted at ECBC. It contains efficacy data as well as data on env conditions such as temperature, RH, and hydrogen peroxide vapor concentration. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Wood, J., W. Calfee, S. Ryan, L. Mickelsen, M. Clayton, and V. Rastogi.
