UV-LEDs Efficiently Inactivate DNA and RNA Coliphages
UV-LEDs are a new method of disinfecting drinking water. Some viruses are very resistant to UV and the efficiency of UV-LEDs to disinfect them needs to be studied. Drinking water was disinfected with UV-LEDs after spiking the water with MS2 and four UVand/or Cl-resistant coliphages belonging to RNA or DNA coliphages isolated from municipal wastewater. UV-LEDs operating at a wavelength of 270 nm...
متن کاملMaskless photolithography using UV LEDs.
A UV light emitting diode (LED) with a maximum output of 372 nm was collimated using a pinhole and a small plastic tube and focused using a microscope objective onto a substrate for direct lithographic patterning of the photoresist. Movement of the substrate with a motorised linear stage (syringe pump) allowed lines in SU-8 to be pattered with a width down to 35 microm at a linear velocity of 8...
متن کاملOrganic LEDs: DNA benefits
The nucleic acid bases that form DNA can serve as a useful hole-transport (electron blocking) layer in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), according to scientists in the USA. Eliot Gomez and co-workers report that because adenine and thymine can be thermally evaporated, they can be easily incorporated into the fabrication of OLEDs made by vacuum deposition and offer efficient hole-transport ...
متن کاملThe Effect of UV and Combined Chlorine/UV Treatment on Coliphages in Drinking Water Disinfection
Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is a common way to disinfect drinking water, but some viruses are very resistant to UV. Drinking water was disinfected with UV after spiking with MS2 and 18 different coliphages isolated from municipal wastewater effluent. In addition, some coliphages were disinfected with combined treatment of chlorine/UV or vice versa with UV/chlorine. A UV-dose of 22 mWs/cm2 caus...
متن کاملA comparison of the survival of F+RNA and F+DNA coliphages in lake water microcosms.
The survival of seven F+RNA phages (MS2 Group I ATCC type strain, two Group I environmental isolates, a Group II environmental isolate, a Group III environmental isolate, and two Group IV environmental isolates) and six F+DNA phages (M13, fd, f1, and ZJ/2 ATCC type strains, and two environmental isolates) were examined in microcosms using a surface drinking water source. Phages were spiked into...
