hydrogen peroxide bacterial spores surface decontamination D-value material properties Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) is an effective biocidal agent with a broad activity spectrum against microorganisms, which is primarily attributed to its strong oxidative properties. Moreover, H 2 O 2 has a low environmental impact as it decomposes into water and oxygen, leaving no harmful residues. H 2 O 2 based decontamination processes are thus widely applied in the pharmaceutical and other industries to inactivate or reduce the microbiological burden (bioburden) on surfaces. Generally, these processes make use of vapor-phase H 2 O 2 which is carried ...
