WeibullPeleg_iso {bioinactivation}

Isothermal Weibull-Peleg Model

Description

Returns the predicted logarithmic reduction in microbial count according to Weibull-Peleg's model for the time, temperature and model parameters given.

Usage

WeibullPeleg_iso(time, temp, n, k_b, temp_crit)

Arguments

time

numeric indicating the time at which the prediction is taken.

temp

numeric indicating the temperature of the treatment.

n

numeric defining shape factor of the Weibull distribution.

k_b

numeric indicating the slope of the b~temp line.

temp_crit

numeric with the value of the critical temperature.

Value

A numeric with the predicted logarithmic reduction (log10(N/N0)).
