Abstract
The mean time-survivor curves of bacteria immersed in two phenolic disinfectants show the same variation of type as the individual curves, that is, (a) an exponential rate, (b) a lag phase followed by an exponential rate. The significance of all these curves and of others is discussed in the next part of the paper.Keywords
