Modelling Bacillus cereus growth.
The aim of this study was to model the growth, in a model system, of toxigenic strains of Bacillus cereus as a function of temperature, pH and water activity. Optical density (OD) values were transformed into numbers of colony-forming units (CFU) by the use of a 'calibrating' relation. The growth curves were then fitted to the Gompertz function which allowed the estimation of the lag-time (lamb...
متن کاملInactivation of bacteriophages via photosensitization of fullerol nanoparticles.
The production of two reactive oxygen species through UV photosensitization of polyhydroxylated fullerene (fullerol) is shown to enhance viral inactivation rates. The production of both singlet oxygen and superoxide by fullerol in the presence of UV light is confirmed via two unique methods: electron paramagnetic resonance and reduction of nitro blue tetrazolium. These findings build on previou...
متن کاملModelling the Ozone-Based Treatments for Inactivation of Microorganisms
The paper presents the development of a model for ozone treatment in a dynamic bed of different microorganisms (Bacillus subtilis, B. cereus, B. pumilus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Aspergillus niger, Eupenicillium cinnamopurpureum) on a heterogeneous matrix (juniper berries, cardamom seeds) initially treated with numerous ozone doses during various contact times was studied. Tak...
متن کاملInactivation of Friend erythroleukemia virus and Friend virus-transformed cells by merocyanine 540-mediated photosensitization.
The Friend virus complex was used as a model to study the effects of merocyanine 540 (MC 540)-mediated photosensitization on enveloped viruses. Simultaneous exposure to the lipophilic dye MC 540 and white light inactivated cell-free virus, cell-associated virus, and virus-transformed cells. When used under experimental conditions that are known to preserve most mature blood cells, at least some...
