Determination of bactericidal efficacy
Hello everyone,
Translating a paper dealing with bactericidal efficacy, and following on from the previous question... I'm not sure how to translate the compound above - could this be "time to maintain sterility"? Does that sound at all correct?
Hoping to hear from those more experienced.
Context: その殺菌効果は､最大殺菌減少度は-2.21(log)を示し､-1 log殺菌維持時間は7.98hr､-2 log殺菌維持時間は1.6hr､回復所要時間は15.92hr､殺菌曲線上面積は17.0Δlog cfu･hr/mLを示した｡
Thanks,
Sarai

**sterilization holding time
The holding time typically refers to the time during a sterilization cycle when the vessel is held at a constant temperature. For steam sterilization in an autoclave, this is normally the time a vessel is held at 121°C.

Time to maintain sterility
"Time to maintain sterility" seems correct.
The largest reduction in sterility shows -2.21(log) for the effects (of sterilization), the -1 log time to maintain sterility is 7.98hr, the -2 log time to maintain sterility is 1.6hr and the time needed for restoration is 15.92hr. The area for the killing curve displayed 17.0Δlog cfu･hr/mL.
