Reactivation of chlorine-inactivated Escherichia coli.
AVarious investigators have shown that irradiated bacterial cells can be reactivated by different nutrients. However, a controversy exists as to whether chlorinekilled bacteria can be made to recover by posttreatment. Heinmets et al. (1954) reported that they were able to restore the viability of chlorine-inactivated Escherichia coli strain B/r by incubating cells suspended in buffer supplement...
متن کاملChlorine inactivation of Escherichia coli O157:H7.
We analyzed isolates of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (which has recently caused waterborne outbreaks) and wild-type E. coli to determine their sensitivity to chlorination. Both pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains were significantly reduced within 1 minute of exposure to free chlorine. Results indicate that chlorine levels typically maintained in water systems are sufficient to inactivate these org...
متن کاملSmartphone Detection of Escherichia Coli from Wastewater Utilizing Paper Microfluidics
Smartphone detection of E. coli from wastewater was successfully demonstrated using paper microfluidics. Three channels of each paper chip were pre-loaded with BSA-conjugated and anti-E. coli-conjugated beads with varying amount, for negative control, lowand high-range E. coli detection, respectively. Dipping a paper chip into wastewater (or pipetting) led E. coli antigens to travel through pap...
متن کاملEvidence of Naturalized Stress-Tolerant Strains of Escherichia coli in Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants
UNLABELLED Escherichia coli has been proposed to have two habitats-the intestines of mammals/birds and the nonhost environment. Our goal was to assess whether certain strains of E. coli have evolved toward adaptation and survival in wastewater. Raw sewage samples from different treatment plants were subjected to chlorine stress, and ∼59% of the surviving E. coli strains were found to contain a ...
متن کاملControl of mercury in effluents from chlorine plants.
Background information as to the environmental effect of discharges of mercury is provided. The information has justified a programme, outlined in the paper, for reducing mercury in products, waste waters and vented air from chlorine plants using the mercury process. The strict separation of the waste waters and certain technical measures creates possibilities of reducing the discharges effecti...
