Radiation Sterilization: Dose Is Dose [PDF]
Biomedical Instrumentation & Technology, 2020 In the radiation sterilization arena, the question often arises as to whether radiation resistance of microorganisms might be affected by the energy level of the radiation source and the rate of the dose delivered (kGy/time). The basis for the question is if the microbial lethality is affected by the radiation energy level and/or the rate the dose is ...
