Chloramine is the disinfectant of choice for long drinking water distribution systems since it is more stable than chlorine, therefore providing a longer lasting disinfectant residual and producing less disinfection byproducts. However, to deliver safe drinking water in remote areas, redosing stations are used where (mostly) chlorine is added to the water to re-establish a disinfectant residual. In this study, the use of a highly concentrated preformed monochloramine solution instead of chlorine for redosing in tanks or reservoirs along extensive distribution systems was investigated. This will avoid unwanted reactions due to chlorine reactivity (formation of disinfection byproducts) and increase the disinfectant stability. Highly concentrated monochloramine solutions (15 mM, 1 gCl2 L-1) are most stable at high pH (10) and low temperature. It was found that the current kinetic model used for drinking water application was not accurate for highly concentrated monochloramine. A simplified kinetic model was developed and successfully used to predict monochloramine stability in our conditions. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Pyroxamide(NSC-696085).html This will assist water utilities for application of preformed concentrated monochloramine allowing monochloramine redosing in long drinking water distribution systems. Hydrazine, a compound of health concern, might form at high monochloramine concentrations and high pH and needs to be carefully controlled.Pre-existing immunity to dengue virus (DENV) can either protect against or exacerbate, a phenomenon known as antibody dependent enhancement (ADE), a secondary DENV infection. DENV, as an escalating health problem worldwide, has increased the urgency to understand the precise parameters shaping the anti-DENV antibody (Ab) and T cell responses, thereby tipping the balance towards protection versus pathogenesis. Herein, we present the current state of knowledge of about the interplay between the Ab and T cell responses that dictate the outcome of DENV infection and discuss how this newfound knowledge is reshaping strategies for developing safe and effective DENV vaccines.Biofilms are ubiquitous in drinking water systems due to their external matrix of exopolymeric substances (EPS) that provide them protection and adaptability. They are even more common in low flow conditions where hydraulics favor their growth. EPS are organic substances (i.e., proteins, carbohydrates and humic substances) that can react with disinfectant, forming disinfection byproducts (DBP), some of which are controlled by water regulation. However, there is little information available on biofilm-disinfectant interaction and the effect of operational conditions such as biofilm age, water velocity, chlorine and pipeline length on the DBP formation potential of EPS (DBPfpEPS). Using experimental setup and studies of two different biofilms Biofilm 1 (2.6 ± 0.8 mg Cl/L) and Biofilm 2 (0.7 ± 0.2 mg Cl/L), the DBPfpEPS was studied and compared to the DBPfp of filtered water (FW). The DBP studied were trihalomethanes (THM), haloacetic acids (HAA), haloacetonitriles (HAN), chloropropanones (CP) and chloropicrin (CPK). The DBP concentration trend in both EPS and FW was HAA > THM > CP > HAN > CPK. Biofilm age only increased chloroform (CF)fpEPS in Biofilm 1, while other DBPfpEPS decreased. A direct relationship between water velocity and CFfp in Biofilm 1 was found, probably related to higher chlorine diffusion and the production of a more reactive matrix. Chlorine positively affected DBPfpEPS, increasing Cl-HAA, Cl-THM, CPK and Br-HAN. Biofilm 2 produced higher quantities of EPS per meter of pipeline, this constituting a precursor of intermediary DBP 1,1 dichloropropanone (1,1, DCP). The study compared DBP in chlorinated water in contact with biofilm (BCW) and without (CW). Biofilm 1 increased levels of Cl-HAA, Cl-CP and dichloro-acetonitrile, while Biofilm 2 diminished Cl-HAA and Cl-HAN. Biofilm 1 reduced some Br-HAA in BCW, whereas Biofilm 2 promoted Br-HAA and 1,1, DCP in BCW. EPS and biofilms were significant in terms of their effect on DBP formation.The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) severely threatens the public health worldwide, but the transmission mechanism and the effectiveness of mitigation measures remain uncertain. Here we assess the role of airborne transmission in spreading the disease and the effectiveness of face covering in preventing inter-human transmission for the top-fifteen infected U.S. states during March 1 and May 18, 2020. For all fifteen states, the curve of total confirmed infections exhibits an initial sub-exponential growth and a subsequent linear growth after implementing social distancing/stay-at-home orders. The linearity extends one to two months for the six states without mandated face covering and to the onset of mandated face covering for the other nine states with this measure, reflecting a dynamic equilibrium between first-order transmission kinetics and intervention. For the states with mandated face covering, significant deviation from this linearity and curve flattening occur after the onset of with social distancing and hand hygiene, represents the maximal protection against inter-human transmission and the combination of these intervention measures with rapid and extensive testing as well as contact tracing is crucial in containing the COVID-19 pandemic.Most microbial fuel cells (MFCs) based sensors rely on exoelectrogenic bacteria to sense contaminants. However, these sensors cannot monitor repeated pollutions unless the exoelectrogenic bacteria are recovered or re-inoculated. To overcome this drawback, a novel sediment microbial fuel cell (SMFC) based sensor was developed for online and in situ monitoring of repeated Cu2+ shocks to the overlaying water of paddy soil. The SMFC sensor was operated for a period of eight months in the field environment and a group of CuCl2 solutions ranging from 12.5 to 400 mg L-1 Cu2+ were repeatedly applied on sunny and rainy days in different seasons. Results show that the SMFC sensor generates one voltage peak in less than 20 s after each Cu2+ shock, regardless of the seasons and weather conditions, and the voltage increments from baseline to peak exhibit linear correlation (R2 > 0.92) with the logarithm of Cu2+ concentrations. Repeated Cu2+ pollutions do not decrease the baseline voltage, indicating that the activity of exoelectrogenic bacteria was not significantly inhibited.
