Under this analysis, maximum effect (Emax) for all products is fixed to the innovator's (Emax= 5.42 log10 CFU/g).

Abbreviators: N: Hill's slope; ED50: effective dose to reach 50% of Emax; BD: bacteriostatic dose; 1LKD: 1 log kill dose; SEM: standard error of the mean; Bold numbers: not statistically different from zero, invalid parameter. * Maximum dose used in the experiments.
