Resistance to chlorine of freshwater bacterial strains.
The disinfectant properties of chlorine have been known for centuries but in the last few years water chlorination has attracted some criticism due to its secondary effects and the increased resistance of bacterial strains to chlorine inactivation. In this paper the kinetics of inactivation by chlorine of different Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains isolated from chlorinated wate...
متن کاملResistance of blastocystis hominis cysts to chlorine.
Blastocystis hominis is an intestinal protozoan parasite. Although the pathogenic potential of this organism remains controversial, there is increasing evidence to suggest its involvement with human disease. Infections due to blastocystis homims are quite common in the tropics and third world countries owing to the prevailing unsanitary conditions. Almost 50% of the random faecal samples from A...
متن کاملBioremediation of gasoil by indigenous bacterial strains
Petroleum refining industries produce large amounts of toxic effluents, causing environmental pollution. Iran is an oil-rich country that encounters oil pollution in its soil and water. Bioremediation of these pollutants is an appropriate solution to tackle them, compared to physical and chemical remediation methods. There are some factors that increase the rate of biodegradation; therefore, th...

متن کاملResistance to cadmium and parasite infection are inversely related in two strains of a freshwater gastropod.
Phenotypes that are either resistant or susceptible to infection by the trematode parasite Schistosoma mansoni exist in the tropical freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata. We tested the hypothesis that a cost of parasite resistance in B. glabrata is greater sensitivity to cadmium toxicity, using parasite-resistant and parasite-susceptible strains exposed to cadmium in the laboratory. Survival ...
