Relating Cell Killing to Inactivation of Critical Components

Christopher A. Miles*

Received 21 July 2005/ Accepted 19 September 2005

In this paper I relate the loss of CFU following a life-threatening treatment to the inactivation of critical components. Equations are used to calculate the loss of CFU following isothermal and temperature-scanning treatments, and the results are discussed in relation to differential scanning calorimetry of bacteria.
