Calculating LR and the within-experiment standard error of LR (Cord)
Using data from repeated experiments to find more reliable LR values in the future (Al)
Analysis of dilution series counts (Marty)

Log Reduction (LR) fora Quantitative Assay
Vc = viable cell density of biofilm grown in the absence of antimicrobial treatment
Vd = viable cell density of biofilm grown in the presence of the disinfectant
Log Reduction = log10(Vc) - log10(Vd)
3
Numerical Example
Vc = 107 & Vd = 10
Log Reduction = log10(107) - log10(10) LR = 7 - 1 LR = 6
Interpretation: disinfectant killed 99.9999% of the bacteria

Within-experiment standard error (SE) of the LR
Sc = variance of control log10 densities
Sd = variance of disinfected log10 densities
nc = number of control coupons

Plated 50 μl from tube;plate contains a fraction50/10000 = 5 x 10-3 of the volume in the tube.
f = (5 x 10-3) 10-4 = 5 x 10-7

10 ml filtered
Count 20 fields on each filter;corresponds to 0.02 of filter area
f = 0.001 x 0.9 x 0.02 = 1.8 x 10-5
f = 0.0001 x 1.0 x 0.02 = 2.0 x 10-6

The 460 cfu corresponds to this fraction of the beaker volume:f = 1.8x10-5 + 2.0x10-6
= 2.0 x 10-5
Estimate for beaker = 460/(2.0x10-5)= 2.3 x 107
