Retrospective Analysis of Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infection and Monochloramine Disinfection of Municipal Drinking Water in Michigan

MSPHERE, 4(4).

Ed(s): T. Mattes

author keywords: disinfection; drinking water; infection; monochloramine; nontuberculous mycobacteria
MeSH headings : Adult; Aged; Chloramines / pharmacology; Chlorine / pharmacology; Disinfectants / pharmacology; Disinfection / methods; Drinking Water / microbiology; Female; Humans; Male; Michigan / epidemiology; Middle Aged; Mycobacterium Infections, Nontuberculous / epidemiology; Mycobacterium Infections, Nontuberculous / etiology; Nontuberculous Mycobacteria / drug effects; Retrospective Studies; Water Purification / methods; Water Purification / standards
TL;DR: The results suggest that municipal drinking water disinfection with monochloramine compared to chlorine is not associated with higher risk of NTM infection, which is important given that regulations that limit drinking water concentrations of disinfection by-products, which are formed primarily when chlorine disinfection is used, incentivize drinking water utilities to change from chlorine disinfections to monoch chloramine disinfection.

Relating nitrogen concentration and light intensity to the growth and lipid accumulation of Dunaliella viridis in a photobioreactor

Journal of Applied Phycology, 31(6), 3397–3409.

By: Y. Lai n, A. Karam n, H. Sederoff n, J. Ducoste n & F. de los Reyes n

Contributors: Y. Lai n, A. Karam n, H. Sederoff n, J. Ducoste n & F. Reyes n

author keywords: Dunaliella viridis; Chlorophyta; Lipid; Light; Nitrogen; Photobioreactor
TL;DR: The data show that D. viridis accumulates cellular carbohydrates as a primary carbon and energy storage product and then converts the cellular carbohydrates into cellular lipids as a secondary storage product when nitrogen is depleted, suggesting the possible use of real-time light data as a method for in situ quantification of biomass concentration and chlorophyll a concentration.
