Electrochemical Pseudo-Titration of Water-Soluble Antioxidants

Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Alice Adei Neequaye

An amperometric test for the antioxidant power (AOP) of biological and food samples is presented. The gist of the method is to measure by linear sweep voltammetry the anodic current produced during the oxidation of the labile species present in the sample ...

Oxidation of Manganese(II) during Chlorination: Role of Bromide

Urs von Gunten

The oxidation of dissolved manganese(II) (Mn(II)) during chlorination is a relatively slow process which may lead to residual Mn(II) in treated drinking waters. Chemical Mn(II) oxidation is autocatalytic and consists of a homogeneous and a heterogeneous pr ...

Microfluidic applications of functionalized magnetic particles for environmental analysis: focus on waterborne pathogen detection

Martinus Gijs

The continuous surveillance of drinking water is extremely important to provide early warning of contamination and to ensure continuous supplies of healthy drinking water. Isolation and detection of a particular type of pathogen present at low concentratio ...

Enhanced Bromate Formation during Chlorination of Bromide-Containing Waters in the Presence of CuO: Catalytic Disproportionation of Hypobromous Acid

Urs von Gunten, Chao Liu

Bromate (BrO3–) in drinking water is traditionally seen as an ozonation byproduct from the oxidation of bromide (Br–), and its formation during chlorination is usually not significant. This study shows enhanced bromate formation during chlorination of brom ...

Modelling occupants’ personal characteristics for thermal comfort prediction

Darren Robinson, Frédéric Haldi

Based on results from a field survey campaign conducted in Switzerand, we show that occupants’ variations in clothing choices, which are relatively unconstrained, are best described by the daily mean outdoor temperature and that major clothing adjustments ...

Comprehensive modeling of chloride ion and water ingress into concrete considering thermal and carbonation state for real climate

Eugen Brühwiler, David Conciatori, Francine Laferrière

This article presents a comprehensive modeling of temperature, carbonation, water and chloride ions transport in cover concrete using the transport model "TransChlor". The TransChlor transport model employs weather data and chloride ion concentrations pres ...

Improving Ethanol Production of Xylose-Utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic

Abundant in nature lignocellulosic plant biomass represent a promising, sustainable, source of energy as it can be converted into fuel ethanol through the fermentation of one of its prevalent sugar constituents – xylose. Xylose-utilizing recombinant Saccha ...

Vegetation-environment relationships in peatlands dominated by Sphagnum fallax (Klinggr.) Klinggr. in Western Poland

Mariusz Lamentowicz

We investigated species composition and relative abundance of Sphagnum fallax dominated peatlands in relation to measured environmental variables on the basis of 26 sites in the Wielkopolska region. Most of studied plots were characterised with soft waters ...

Understanding medicinal taste and odour formation in drinking waters

Urs von Gunten

The formation of bromophenols during chlorination of phenol- and bromide-containing waters can be critical for taste and odour problems in drinking waters. The work performed has confirmed that flavour threshold concentrations of some bromophenols are in t ...

Differences in corticosterone level due to inter-food interval length: implications for schedule-induced polydipsia

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of different food-reinforcement schedules on plasma corticosterone (CORT), and its possible involvement in the acquisition and maintenance of schedule-induced polydipsia (SIP). In Experiment 1, three g ...
