Gamma radiation inactivation of Enterococci
1990
Huhtanen, C.N.
Radiation survival curves were determined for 7 strains of Enterococcus faecium, 10 strains of E. faecalis, and 8 strains of the proteolytic variety of E. faecalis. The D values (i.e. the doses giving 90% reduction of viable counts) ranged from 5.0-47 kGy for the E. faecium strains, 3.5-21 kGy for the E. faecalis strains, and 3.0-4.5 kGy for the proteolytic variants of E. faecalis. The survival curves were linear for most strains but some exhibited significant non-linear trends.
