R=chemical production/destruction rate for NO in the chamber. The NO emissions from soil to the headspace are calculated as J. The so-called “FISH” method identifiesmicroorganismsby using fluorescently labeledoligonucleotideprobes homologous to target strains or groups of microorganisms and viewing by...
the test microorganisms can be affixed to a portion of the wall of the housing, wherein the test microorganisms are enveloped by the wax composition and/or the portion of the wall. In any of the above embodiments, the self-contained biological indicator for sterilization process further can com...
