Effect of hydrogen peroxide concentration and pH on inactivation kinetics of Escherichia coli

The inactivation kinetics of Escherichia coli ATCC 35218 in hydrogen peroxide solutions at different concentrations (0-3.00% w/v) and pH values (3.0-7.2) at 25C was studied. Effectiveness of H2O2 solutions against E. coli ATCC 35218 appeared to improve at both higher H 2O2 concentrations and more ac...
