Book Development of the Firefly Bioluminescent Assay for the Rapid  Quantitative Detection of Microbial Contamination of Water

Download or read book Development of the Firefly Bioluminescent Assay for the Rapid Quantitative Detection of Microbial Contamination of Water written by Gilbert V. Levin and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research was conducted toward development of a sensitive, biologically nonspecific assay technique which uses the firefly bioluminescent reaction to detect ATP extracted from microorganisms present in water supplies. An instrument using a photomultiplier to detect the light output from the bioluminescent reaction was designed, constructed, and tested. Cultures of a wide variety of organisms were grown, both heterotrophic and autotrophic, and included numerous species of bacteria, algae, fungi, and protozoa. The tests demonstrated the ability to detect concentrations of only a few hundred cells of any of the test species and in many cases less than 100 cells in less than 30 seconds. The ATP response is related to number of cells and cell size and can be used as a measure of the number of cells per volume of sample if something is known of the cell size. Development of a differential filtering technique may be necessary to obtain highest accuracy in quantitation if cells of varying size are encountered. The inherent light level of the enzyme solution without ATP added varies from day to day and consequently the net response of the instrument - gross response less inherent light - is the best measure of ATP level. The assay technique may have applicability to terrestrial water supplies - particularly under hazardous or difficult conditions - as well as to spacecraft waters.

Book Comprehensive Membrane Science and Engineering

Download or read book Comprehensive Membrane Science and Engineering written by Enrico Drioli and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-07-20 with total page 1709 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprehensive Membrane Science and Engineering, Second Edition, Four Volume Set is an interdisciplinary and innovative reference work on membrane science and technology. Written by leading researchers and industry professionals from a range of backgrounds, chapters elaborate on recent and future developments in the field of membrane science and explore how the field has advanced since the previous edition published in 2010. Chapters are written by academics and practitioners across a variety of fields, including chemistry, chemical engineering, material science, physics, biology and food science. Each volume covers a wide spectrum of applications and advanced technologies, such as new membrane materials (e.g. thermally rearranged polymers, polymers of intrinsic microporosity and new hydrophobic fluoropolymer) and processes (e.g. reverse electrodialysis, membrane contractors, membrane crystallization, membrane condenser, membrane dryers and membrane emulsifiers) that have only recently proved their full potential for industrial application. This work covers the latest advances in membrane science, linking fundamental research with real-life practical applications using specially selected case studies of medium and large-scale membrane operations to demonstrate successes and failures with a look to future developments in the field. Contains comprehensive, cutting-edge coverage, helping readers understand the latest theory Offers readers a variety of perspectives on how membrane science and engineering research can be best applied in practice across a range of industries Provides the theory behind the limits, advantages, future developments and failure expectations of local membrane operations in emerging countries
