The Hormetic Effect Observed for Benzalkonium Chloride and Didecyldimethylammonium Chloride in <i>Serratia</i> sp. HRI
Hormesis, or the hormetic effect, is a dose- or concentration-dependent response characterised by growth stimulation at low concentrations and inhibition at high concentrations. The impact of sub-lethal levels of disinfectants on the growth of <i>Serratia</i> species is critical to under...
