a Calculation based on Fister et al. [30]. Mean virucidal concentration (VC) values (mg/L) and the span of measured values (lower limit; upper limit) are shown for the virus data. Mean MIC values (mg/L) and the span of measured values (lower limit; upper limit) are shown for bacterial and enzyme data.
