Efficacy of using harmless Bacillus endospores as novel surrogate organisms to indicate the inactivation performance of recalcitrant cryptosporidium parvus oocysts suspended in water using pulsed IV light
(American Society of Parasitologists, 2013-06)The need to use complex in vitro cell culture, expensive equipment and highly-trained technicians that are available only to specialist laboratories has significantly limited studies assessing the potential of pulsed UV ... -
Monitoring, sources, receptors, and control measures for three European Union watch list substances of emerging concern in receiving waters - a 20 year systematic review
(Elsevier, 2017-01)Pollution of European receiving waters with contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), such as with 17-beta-estradiol (a natural estrogenic hormone, E2), along with pharmaceutically-active compounds diclofenac (an anti-inflammatory ... -
Occurrence and geodatabase mapping of three contaminants of emerging concern in receiving water and at effluent from waste water treatment plants - a first overview of the situation in the Republic of Ireland
(Elsevier, 2018-03)This constitutes the first study to address occurrence and geodatabase mapping of the anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac (DCL) and the natural (17-beta-estradiol or E2) and synthetic (17-alpha-ethynylestradiol or EE2) ... -
