This work compares the presowing treatment of winter wheat seeds with a low-temperature plasma, constant high-voltage electric field, plant protection disinfectant, and cold hardening on resistance seedlings to freezing their morphophysiological characteristics at initial stage germination. Various combinations were considered, including effect disinfectant jointly plasma treatment. The greates...

agent technology is an emerging and promising research area in software technology, which increasingly contributes to the development of value-added information systems for large healthcare organizations due to its capability to automatically modify themselves in response to changes in their operating environment. multi agent system (mas) approach is the construction of a complex system as a se...

Corona virus infection iscalled COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease 2019) and was first discovered in the city of Wuhan, China at end December 2019. This spreads very quickly has spread to almost all countries, including Indonesia, just a few months. made several countries implement policies impose lockdowns order prevent virus. Various efforts were corona virus, measuring body temperature spraying ...

Biological invasions through ships’ ballast water create threats to the environment and to the human health and thus, need to treat prior to the discharge. In this study, an innovative electro-disinfection reactor system is developed and optimized for disinfection of E. coli in ballast water to achieve the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) guideline, 250 CFU/100ml. Optimized hydraulic...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a "green chemical" that has various cleaning and disinfectant uses, including as an anti-bacterial agent for hygienic and medical treatments. However, its efficacy is limited against biofilm-producing bacteria, because of poor penetration into the protective, organic matrix. Here we show new applications for ferromagnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4, MNPs) with peroxidase-l...

A use-dilution procedure and screening method are proposed to aid the hospital bacteriologist in selecting the most effective disinfectants. Sixteen disinfectants were tested with and without organic material on six different organisms. Sporadic results usually obtained with quaternaries tested by the procedure of the Association of Official Agricultural Chemists (AOAC) were eliminated by the m...

Environmental and patient isolates of Mycobacterium avium were resistant to chlorine, monochloramine, chlorine dioxide, and ozone. For chlorine, the product of the disinfectant concentration (in parts per million) and the time (in minutes) to 99.9% inactivation for five M. avium strains ranged from 51 to 204. Chlorine susceptibility of cells was the same in washed cultures containing aggregates...

Methods: Disinfectants were prepared according to the manufacturers’ label directions and mixed with virus stock. The disinfectant-virus solution was then passed through a detoxification column to remove compounds toxic to cell culture. The filtrate was collected, serially diluted, and inoculated onto porcine kidney cells (PK15). After a 48-hour incubation period, the cell cultures were fixed a...

(Part IIc) Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE) and in particular, Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) are devastating neuropathologic diseases caused by a unique, but unknown infective agent with high degree of disinfectant refractivity. Collective literature review and animal observational data has defined two prospective varieties or stains of the infective CWD agent, both suspected to ...
