The granular activated carbon (GAC) sandwich modification to slow sand filtration could be considered as a promising technology for improved drinking water quality. Biofilms developed on and GAC surfaces are expected show functional diversity during the biofiltration. Bench-scale biofilters were set-up run continuously with without antibiotic exposure. Surface (the schmutzdecke) biofilms sampled subject high-throughput qPCR resistance gene (ARG) analysis 16 S rRNA amplicon sequencing....
Despite indoor mould being one of the most common problems in residential properties UK, there are not any widely accepted methodologies for its measurement. This paper focusses on this problem measurement and reports findings from a rigorous testing scheme carried out to quantify air surface concentrations particle counts within 71 rooms 64 North London, some with without visible mould. The aim was investigate potential passive active sampling strategies (sampling still actively mixed air,...
Evidence has shown that environmental surfaces play an important role in the transmission of nosocomial pathogens. Deploying antimicrobial hospital wards could reduce as reservoirs for Herein we show a significant reduction viable counts Staphylococcus epidermidis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and MS2 Bacteriophage after light treatment medical grade silicone incorporating crystal violet, methylene blue 2 nm gold nanoparticles. Furthermore, migration assay demonstrated presence light, growth...
Maximizing the safe removal of hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) from waste streams is an increasing demand due to environmental, economic and health benefits. The integrated adsorption bio-reduction method can be applied for elimination highly toxic Cr6+ its detoxification. This work describes a synthetic achieving best chemical composition spherical flower-like manganese ferrite (MnxFe3-xO4) nanostructures (NS) adsorption. We selected NS with highest performance study efficiency in extracellular...
During the COVID-19 pandemic, a lack of understanding regarding exposure risk on public transport vehicles, due to factors such as interacting with people outside household and vehicles being relatively confined without good ventilation, led uncertainty about how best minimize SARS-CoV-2 transmission controls. Transmission events are notoriously difficult investigate, therefore evidence is lacking. This study first quantify bacterial viral contamination both surfaces air relate them human...
