Comparison of UV‐Cl and UV‐H2O2 advanced oxidation processes in the degradation of contaminants from water and wastewater: A review

Water and Environment Journal, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 633-643, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Applications of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in water and wastewater treatment have been the subject of growing interest throughout the last decade. Although UV/hydrogen peroxide (UV‐H2O2) is the most established technology among the UV‐AOPs, UV‐chlorine (UV‐Cl) is emerging as a reliable and potentially more cost‐effective alternative ...

Microbiological hazards associated with the use of water in the post‐harvest handling and processing operations of fresh and frozen fruits, vegetables and herbs (ffFVHs). Part 1 (outbreak data analysis, literature review and stakeholder questionnaire)

EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023
Abstract The contamination of water used in post‐harvest handling and processing operations of fresh and frozen fruit, vegetables and herbs (ffFVHs) is a global concern. The most relevant microbial hazards associated with this water are: Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp., human pathogenic Escherichia coli and enteric viruses, which have been ...

Coliphages as indicators of enteroviruses [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1984
Coliphages were monitored in conjunction with indicator bacteria and enteroviruses in a drinking-water plant modified to reduce trihalomethane production. Coliphages could be detected in the source water by direct inoculation, and sufficient coliphages were detected in enterovirus concentrates to permit following the coliphage levels through different ...

Phage‐Inducible Chromosomal Islands as a Diagnostic Platform to Capture and Detect Bacterial Pathogens

Advanced Science, Volume 10, Issue 24, August 25, 2023., 2023
In this report, a new PICI‐based platform is showcased to detect and identify bacteria. In contrast to other diagnostic approaches, this strategy can additionally distinguish whether the pathogens are alive. PICI‐based infection of target hosts is simple and efficient, allowing us to demonstrate the implementation of the technique in an easy‐to‐use ...

Antibiotics and Phage Sensitivity as Interventions for Controlling Escherichia coli Isolated from Clinical Specimens

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2017
Escherichia coli is considered one of the most frequent causative agents of common bacterial infections worldwide. In addition, effective treatment and prevention measures are still in demand due to the rise of antibiotic resistance and the emergence of
