Primary Scenario
Accepts scientific notation (e.g., 1e7).
Nt
t
min
LOD
If Nt < LOD, we report a lower bound for L.
t
min
Estimate Nt from plates (if available): Nt ≈ (colonies / plated_volume) × dilution_factor.
Colonies
Dilution
Total dilution factor (e.g., 1e3 for 10⁻³ plated).
Vol
mL
t
min
D
min
If empty, D is estimated from t/L when possible.
Acceptance threshold for log reduction (e.g., 5-log).
| Nt (final) | Time (min) | Note |
|---|
Replicates assume the same N₀. We compute L per row and report mean ± SD.

If D is provided or estimable (t/L), we plot N(t) ≈ N₀·10−t/D.
