Effect of Hypomagnetic Field on Water Medium of Living Systems

Journal of Biomedical Science and Engineering, 2019
The article represents the generalizing data for the studying of the effect of hypomagnetic field on physico-chemistry properties of water and bio-objects. It was revealed the changing state of water: increasing of its oxidation-reduction potential and oxidative properties as magnetic induction attenuated pointing to a natural decline, that testifies ...

Using Methods to Assess the Structure of Water and Water-Containing Systems to Improve the Properties of Living and Non-Living Systems

Water (Switzerland)
This paper explores how water and water-based systems change their structure under different conditions, such as pH, temperature, and electric fields. These changes affect the properties and performance of living and non-living systems that use water or water-based systems in various technologies.

Stagnation arising through intermittent usage is associated with increased viable but non culturable Legionella and amoeba hosts in a hospital water system

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Hospital water systems are a significant source of Legionella, resulting in the potentially fatal Legionnaires’ disease. One of the biggest challenges for Legionella management within these systems is that under unfavorable conditions Legionella ...
