The Effect of Glutaraldehyde on the Kinetics of Selected Microbiological Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of glutaraldehyde (GA) in different concentrations on microbiological activities of Bacillus licheniformis, Desulfotomaculum ruminis and Thiobacillus ferrooxidans bacteria used in the processes of denitrification, desulfurication and iron (II) oxidation, respectively, has been tested. For the sake of comparison, the effect of formaldehyde (FA) on the activities of the same organisms in the same conditions has been studied. The tolerated and toxic concentrations of the aldehydes were determined.

Kinetics and Isotherm Studies of the Immobilized Lipase on Chitosan Support
The kinetics and isotherm studies of the immobilized lipase and the mechanism of immobilization on chitosan beads and activated chitosan beads with glutaraldehyde were investigated. The effect of glutaraldehyde on porosity of chitosan was evaluated by FESEM analysis. It was observed that the porosity of the carrier which has activated by glutaraldehyde was substantially increased. The validity ...

متن کاملDiscoloration of Vita Classical Shade Guide by Glutaraldehyde Disinfectant
Background and Aim: Shade guide discoloration after disinfection can interfere with the appropriate color selection for dental restorations. Since one of the most important issues for patients is the color of the final restoration, the discoloration of shade guides due to disinfectants will be important. Infection control is a definite and important matter in dentistry. Due to the contradictory...
متن کاملThe Effect of Formulation Variables on the Release Kinetics of Paracetamol Tablet Formulations.
Aim: The objective of this work was to study the effects of formulation variables on the release kinetics of paracetamol tablet formulation. Materials and Methods: Paracetamol tablets were formulated using wet granulation (WG) and direct compression (DC) using two predetermined pressures. Avicel, dicalcium phosphate (DCP) and pregelatinized starch (PGS) were used as directly compressible...
متن کاملA Numerical Simulation Study on the Kinetics of Asphaltene Particle Flocculation in a Two-dimensional Shear Flow
In the current study, the kinetics of asphaltene particle flocculation is investigated under a shear flow through numerical simulation. The discrete element method (DEM) is coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to model the agglomeration and fragmentation processes. In addition, a coalescence model is proposed to consider the attachment of colliding particles. The changes in mean asph...
