Impact/Purpose:
This work provides contact time values that are useful for drinking water risk assessment and also suggests that live vaccine strain may not be a good surrogate in disinfection studies. This paper aims to determine the range of free available chlorine required for disinfection of the live vaccine strain and wild-type strains of Francisella tularensis which causes the disease tularemia.
