Efficacy data for inactivation of Bacillus anthracis (anthrax) spores in soil using formaldehyde solutions

Description

These are the efficacy data for each test conducted in study. Data are presented for Bacillus atrophaeus and B. anthracis in colony forming units, for positive controls and for CFU recovered after decontamination. Log reduction calculations are also included, as well as data on temperature and relative humidity. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Richter, W., M. Sunderman, Z. Willenberg, M. Calfee, S. Serre, and J. Wood. Effectiveness of Formaldehyde in Various Soil Types as a Wide Area Decontamination Approach for Bacillus anthracis Spores. PLOS ONE. Public Library of Science, San Francisco, CA, USA, e0277941, (2022).
