The amount of bacteria killed by steam depends on various factors such as temperature, exposure time, and bacterial species. Steam can be an effective method for killing bacteria as the heat can denature and destroy proteins essential for bacterial survival. However, some heat-resistant bacteria may require higher temperatures or longer exposure times to be effectively killed by steam.

Why was the mixture of heat-killed S bacteria and R bacteria and R bacteria virulent?
The mixture contained heat-killed S bacteria, which released their genetic material, including the virulence factor, enabling the R bacteria to incorporate it through genetic recombination. This transformed the R bacteria into a virulent strain capable of causing disease.

What heating boiler system does empire state building has?
The Empire State building gets it steam from the ConEdison steam company that serves much of New York City. The steam is piped all accross the city to buildings that either don't have room or are much to big for their own boilers. If the Empire State building had its own boiler, there would need to be a huge smokestack at the top!
Why is it necessary to heat milk at 85 c?
Milk contains bacteria that cause tuberculosis and other diseases. When milk is heated to 85c, all of the tuberculosis bacteria and disease causing bacteria are killed, and most of the bacteria are killed that causes milk to spoil. So, it makes milk safe to drink. The process is called Pasteurization. That technique greatly reduced tuberculosis in the United States making it much lower than in places where people use raw milk.
What is steam rate?

Can you use steam cleaner on pergo floor?
Steam cleaners are not recommended for Pergo or laminate floors because regular use will cause the substrate to swell as moisture gets between the seams. This can cause the flooring to buckle and come apart. Steam can be worse than regular mopping this way, because it is more permeable, and can get down between the cracks and into the substrate. Some people still believe, since steam cleaners use less and evaporate quicker, that steam cleaning is safer than cleaning with a bucket-and-mop. While it can depend on how hot your cleaner gets and how much moisture it puts out, and if your seams are only on the perimeter, in the long term it is inadvisable to steam-clean laminate floors.
Why should you never use ice in an unknown sroce of water?
The contaminants are concentrated in the void spaces in the ice crystals. Bacteria, floaties, everything. They are really not much safer than the water they are made from. (Some bacteria are killed by freezing, but probably not enough.)
Why did steam rise off the titanics funnels?
Because the titanics boilers did not measure how much steam was boiling if there was to much steam it would go out the funnels that were 63 feet high.
