Table 1 Comparative summary of model-predicted survival times and experimental observations34.
From: Validated thermal model for bacterial survival in fire-resistant self-healing concrete
Furnace Temp (°C) | Model-Predicted Survival Time (CFBB) | Experimental Viability (CFBB) | Model-Predicted Survival Time (Gelatin) | Experimental Viability (Gelatin) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
200 | ~ 19.48 h | High CFU recovery, full healing | ~ 1 h | Partial viability |
400 | ~ 8.41 h | Moderate CFU recovery, good healing | < 1 h | No healing activity |
600 | ~ 5.37 h | Marginal CFU recovery, isolated healing | ~ 0 h | No viable bacteria |
800 | ~ 3.94 h | No viable CFUs, no healing | ~ 0 h | Complete inactivation |
