Disinfection is a very important step in the water treatment independent on the water application. Chlorination is the practice adopted in many industries, but chlorine can cause environmental damage and health hazards in the industry. A less aggressive agent to the environment is desirable to be found. The objective of this work is to prepare stable monochloramine solutions without any residua...

AIM To compare the antimicrobial effect of 2% chlorhexidine, 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and MUMS containing 2% chlorhexidine. MATERIALS AND METHODS All of the above irrigants were examined on Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus mutans, Candida albicans, Lactobacillus casei and E. coli.

Raw seed sprouts have caused numerous outbreaks of enteric infections. Presoaking seeds in a 20,000 mg/liter (ppm) calcium hypochlorite solution before sprouting is recommended to reduce bacterial contamination and infection risk. In 1999, the authors investigated an outbreak of Salmonella serotype Typhimurium infections in Colorado. In a case-control study, they matched 20 cases with 58 contro...
