,ComBase includes a systematically formatted database of quantified microbial responses to the food environment with more than 65,000 records, and is used for:,The ComBase Browser enables you to search thousands of microbial growth and survival curves that have been collated in research establishments and from publications.,The ComBase Predictive Models are a collection of software tools based on ComBase data to predict the growth or inactivation of microorganisms as a function of environmental factors such as temperature, pH and water activity in broth.,Interested users can also contribute growth or inactivation data via the Donate Data page, which includes instructional videos, data template and sample, and an Excel demo file of data and macros for checking data format and syntax.,

The PCB Residue Effects (PCBRes) Database was developed to assist scientists and risk assessors in correlating PCB and dioxin-like compound residues with toxic effects. The purpose is to develop PCB critical residue values for fish, mammals and birds, especially as these relate to aquatic and aquatic-dependent species.

This is a compiled data set for the qPCR analyses, bacterial enumeration analyses, and water quality parameters collected for this study.

BMC Microbiology. BioMed Central Ltd, London, UK, 20(66): 15, (2020).

Data describes the impact of biochar amendments on soil lead bioaccessibility. It contains the raw soil bioaccessibility information. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Plunkett, S., C. Eckley, T. Luxton, and M. Johnson. The effects of biochar and redox conditions on soil Pb bioaccessibility to people and waterfowl. CHEMOSPHERE. Elsevier Science Ltd, New York, NY, USA, 294: 133675, (2022).

Bacillus species and B. anthracis presence/absence data were determined in 4,770 soil samples collected across the contiguous United States, in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) data for Bacillus species and B. anthracis rpoB gene PCR amplicon detection were reported as non-detect (n), low (l), medium (m), and high (h). Results for both pag and lef genes of the pX01 plasmid were reported by the University of South Florida's Center for Biological Defense. This data was recorded as negative or positive for each of the genes and included the following combinations: neg/neg, pos/neg, neg/pos, and pos/pos. Data for the pX02 plasmid were recorded as negative (neg) or positive (pos).
