Hi,

LOGS refers to the logarithmic scale more precisely to the base 10 logarithmic scale. I believe in this case it should be in reference to the extent of sterilization that a filtration system is capable of under certain conditions,so the bigger the number the better the filtering system is for sterilizing a solution in reference to a particlar pathogen.

I would translate 5.64 LOGS as "5.64 log 10"
