E-coli-MS2 bacteriophage interactions during solar disinfection of wastewater and the subsequent post-irradiation period

César Pulgarin, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Stefanos Giannakis

In this study, the effect of MS2 bacteriophage on the inactivation of its Escherichia coli host was evaluated in an effort to recreate some the main factors governing solar disinfection of wastewater (namely microbial growth, infection, photonic flux). As ...

Genetic Determinism vs. Phenotypic Plasticity in Protist Morphology

Edward Mitchell, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Enrique Lara

Untangling the relationships between morphology and phylogeny is key to building a reliable taxonomy, but is especially challenging for protists, where the existence of cryptic or pseudocryptic species makes finding relevant discriminant traits difficult. ...

Evaluation of pathogens inactivation during thermophilic anaerobic digestion of faecal sludge

Karin Valentine Gallandat López

There is an urgent need to develop comprehensive and sustainable sanitation systems in developing countries, including faecal sludge (FS) treatment technologies that help reduce environmental and human health risks. Anaerobic digestion (AD) is widely used ...

Robust production of purified H-2 in a stable, self-regulating, and continuously operating solar fuel generator

Sophia Haussener, Miguel Antonio Modestino

The development of practical solar-driven electrochemical fuel generators requires the integration of light absorbing and electrochemical components into an architecture that must also provide easy separation of the product fuels. Unfortunately, many of th ...

Bacterial Resource Management for Nutrient Removal in Aerobic Granular Sludge Wastewater Treatment Systems

David Gregory Weissbrodt

The approach of wastewater treatment has shifted towards a holistic view in order to achieve sustainability in addition to environmental protection. The aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology, which relies on the use of fast-settling granular biofilms ca ...

An experiment to test advanced materials impacted by intense proton pulses at CERN HiRadMat facility

Nikolaos Charitonidis, Francesco Cerutti, Alessandro Masi

Predicting the consequences of highly energetic particle beams impacting protection devices as collimators or high power target stations is a fundamental issue in the design of state-of-the-art facilities for high-energy particle physics. These complex dyn ...

Esfenvalerate toxicity to the cladoceran Ceriodaphnia dubia in the presence of green algae, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata

The presence of phytoplankton, like other particulate organic matter, can interfere with the effects of hydrophobic contaminants such as pyrethroid pesticides. However, the reduction or elimination of toxicity by algae added as food during testing is not t ...

DNA supercoiling and its role in DNA decatenation and unknotting

Andrzej Stasiak, Guillaume Witz

Chromosomal and plasmid DNA molecules in bacterial cells are maintained under torsional tension and are therefore supercoiled. With the exception of extreme thermophiles, supercoiling has a negative sign, which means that the torsional tension diminishes t ...

Application of the denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) technique as an efficient diagnostic tool for ciliate communities in soil

Enrique Lara, Alexandre Jousset

Ciliates (or Ciliophora) are ubiquitous organisms which can be widely used as bioindicators in ecosystems exposed to anthropogenic and industrial influences. The evaluation of the environmental impact on soil ciliate communities with methods relying on mor ...

Hitting time of large subsets of the hypercube

Jiri Cerny, Véronique Gayrard

We study the simple random walk on the n-dimensional hypercube, in particular its hitting times of large (possibly random) sets. We give simple conditions on these sets ensuring that the properly rescaled hitting time is asymptotically exponentially distri ...
