Inactivation of Escherichia coli by nanoparticulate zerovalent iron and ferrous ion.
The mechanism of Escherichia coli inactivation by nanoparticulate zerovalent iron (nZVI) and Fe(II) was investigated using reactive oxygen species (ROS) quenchers and probes, an oxidative stress assay, and microscopic observations. Disruption of cell membrane integrity and respiratory activity was observed under deaerated conditions [more disruption by nZVI than Fe(II)], and OH or Fe(IV) appear...
متن کاملInactivation of Escherichia coli O157 Bacteriophages by Using a Mixture of Ferrous Sulfate and Tea Extract.
Bacteriophages (phages) have been used for biocontrol of Escherichia coli O157 and other pathogenic bacteria in many different matrices and foods, but few studies have included inactivation of residual phages in culture medium before plating and enumeration of surviving host bacteria for the assessment of phage efficacy. This oversight may lead to overestimation of phage efficacy. The ability o...
متن کاملRemoval and inactivation of waterborne viruses using zerovalent iron.
A daunting challenge facing the water industry and regulators is how to simultaneously control microbial pathogens, residual disinfectant, and disinfection byproducts in drinking water, and to do so at an acceptable cost. Of the different pathogens, viruses are especially problematic due to their small size, high mobility, and resistance to chlorination and filtration. In the past decade, zerov...
متن کاملInvestigation on Escherichia Coli Inactivation and Some Quality Changes in Carrot Juice by Ultrasound Technique
In this study Response Surface Methodology was used to optimize process conditions and to evaluate the effect of ultrasound on quality attributes (antioxidant activity, pH, total soluble solid, turbidity) and the inactivation of Escherichia coli bacteria in carrot juice. Independent variables in this study were temperature (25-50°C), time (20-40 min) and frequency (0-130 kHz). In this study the...
متن کاملFerrous iron uptake by a magnesium transport system is toxic for Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium.
At low magnesium concentrations, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium LT2 accumulate ferrous iron independent of the ferrous iron transport system feo. Mutant strains with mutations in the magnesium transport gene corA accumulated less ferrous iron than the parent strains. corA+ and corA strains also differed in their sensitivity to ferrous iron under oxic conditions. corA mutants were m...
