Several factors influence the death rate: • Number of microbes: more there are the longer it takes • Environmental influences: - organi tt i hibit ti f ic matter inhibits action of chemical antimicrobials - biofilms - temperature - fats and proteins are protective • Time of exposure: longer time for more resistant microbes • Microbial characteristics: such as endospore or not r of ls sterile surgical equipment log10 of numbe surviving cel l Time (min) (b) Logarithmic plotting (red) reveals that if the rate of killing is the same, it will take longer to kill all members of a larger population than a smaller one, whether using heat or chemical treatments
