Yield testing data for both Gram positive pathogens (tab 1) and Gram negative pathogens (tab 2). Data is color coded by organism, then by iPad generation, and lastly by number of wet swabs used. Inoculum column is the concentration of organism suspension used in testing, “Amt applied” column is the raw number of bacteria applied to the surface of the iPad as determined by before and after weights of the swabs used to apply the suspensions.
