Relative humidity and the killing of bacteria: the variation of cellular water content with external relative humidity or osmolality.
The paper deals with the relationship betweeen the water content of washed Serratia marcescens and the thermodynamic activity of water, a,, over the range 0 < a, < 1.0. Two overlapping types of measurement are used: osmotic water exchange and water-vapour sorption. The data are given in terms of the equation w = Bm-' where w is water content, m is external osmolality (actual or effective, depen...
متن کاملEstimation of Evolution of Relative Humidity Distribution for Concrete Slabs
Realistic prediction of concrete shrinkage and creep requires the calculation of the distributions of relative humidity at various times. Although the distributions of the relative humidity can be computed by numerical methods from the differential equation for diffusion, simple prediction formulas can facilitate structural analysis. The purpose of this paper is to present a simple formula for ...
متن کاملTissue Engineered Human Skin Equivalents
Human skin not only serves as an important barrier against the penetration of exogenous substances into the body, but also provides a potential avenue for the transport of functional active drugs/reagents/ingredients into the skin (topical delivery) and/or the body (transdermal delivery). In the past three decades, research and development in human skin equivalents have advanced in parallel wit...

متن کاملInfluence of environmental storage relative humidity on biological indicator resistance, viability, and moisture content.
The effect of environmental storage relative humidity (RH) on the moisture content, viability, and moist heat and gaseous ethylene oxide (EO) resistance of biological indicators (BIs) was evaluated. No statistically significant difference was observed between the initial Bacillus stearothermophilus spore population and the spore population of BIs stored at 20 degrees C and 0, 20, 44, of 55% RH ...
