This question follows from the last question The D value for a resistant strain of bacterial spores is 0.5 kGy when radiation sterilised. Usually, a 60Co source delivers a 25 kGy dose in 10 minutes and is used to sterilise syringes where the typical contamination level is 100 bacteria per syringe. What is the minimum time required to ensure a SAL of 10 6 is achieved?

Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
