Disinfection by-products and extractable organic compounds in South African tap water

The Journal for Transdisciplinary Research in Southern Africa, 2008
An important step in urban purification of drinking water is disinfection by e.g. chlorination where potential pathogenic micro-organisms in the water supply are killed.

Removal of Trihalomethanes from Water using Modified Montmorillonite

Acta Chimica Slovenica, 2020
Trihalomethanes (THMs) are formed during the water chlorination process through the reaction between chlorine and the organic materials. In this research, montmorillonite (MMT) and its modified form were used to remove the THMs from the water.

A Guideline to Evaluate Sorbent Performance for Atmospheric Water Harvesting

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Reporting guidelines for atmospheric water harvesting sorbents allow benchmarking between research groups across seven key performance indicators (KPIs). Beyond simple equilibrium values (such as capacity or maximum water uptake), these KPIs validate sensitivity, reversibility, regeneration conditions, chemical stability, kinetics, and water quality ...

Ecotoxicological Evaluation of Soil Irrigated With Cattle Slaughter Effluent Disinfected With Peracetic Acid Using the Bioindicators Eisenia fetida and Vibrio fischeri

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 2, February 2026.
Cattle slaughter effluent disinfected with peracetic acid increased toxicity to E. fetida and V. fischeri and increased soil degradability. Cattle slaughter effluent did not demonstrate toxicity to V. fischeri. ABSTRACT The increasing volume of effluents generated by slaughterhouses is driving studies that seek sustainable alternatives for their reuse ...

Validation of Sanitizer Concentration to Reduce Cross‐Contamination Risk During Washing of Apples

Journal of Food Process Engineering, Volume 49, Issue 2, February 2026.
Eighty parts per million PAA was more effective at removing E. coli TVS353 on inoculated apples at both COD levels, achieving reduction levels of 5.3–6.0 log MPN/apple compared to 80 ppm NaOCl (2.9–3.7 log MPN/apple). Both sanitizers were effective at preventing E. coli cross‐contamination compared to no sanitizer treatment.

Placental Abruption and Perinatal Mortality: Abnormal Placentation and Spontaneous Abortion as Contributors to Left Truncation Bias

Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 133-143, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Generally, studies in perinatal epidemiology restrict cohort entry to 20 weeks of gestation, but exposures and outcomes may occur earlier. This restriction may introduce left truncation bias. Objectives To examine the impact of left truncation bias when estimating the causal effect of abruption on perinatal mortality in the context ...

Should the non‐canonical pathway of nitric oxide generation be targeted in hypertensive pregnancies?

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 1, Page 57-69, January 2026.
Abstract Hypertension in pregnancy is prevalent, affecting around 10% of pregnancies worldwide, and significantly increases the risk of adverse outcomes for both mothers and their babies. Current treatment strategies for pregnant women with hypertension are limited, and new approaches for the management of hypertension in pregnancy are urgently needed.
