Table 3.
Tolerance limits for day 0 (inoculation) and day 1 temperatures (˚F) of swine held in BSL containment facility.
| Day 0 | Day 1 | Pa | |
| Mean | 102.5 | 102.6 | 0.531 |
| 1 SD | 0.911 | 0.849 | |
| 95% tolerance, upper bound | 104.3 | 104.2 | |
| 95% tolerance, lower bound | 100.7 | 100.9 |
Tolerance bounds = x̅ ± 1.96 (s), where x̅ is the sample mean of day 0 and day 1 temperatures after inoculation, and s is the sample SD.
A paired t-test was used to compare the 2 days of temperatures.
