Cabinet Decontamination Using Formaldehyde

Adsorption of formaldehyde by various surfaces during gaseous decontamination.

Study of the effect of atmospheric relative humity (RH) on the adsorption of paraformaldehyde-generated formaldehyde gas on various surfaces and the effect of the adsorbed formaldehyde on the death rate of bacterial spores showed that increasing the RH caused a corresponding increase of formaldehyde levels on all surfaces. The amount peaked at 83% RH. The levels obtained at 100% RH were slightl...

Microbial Decontamination of Spices Using Cold Plasma

Most of spices are produced using traditional systems. In unsanitary conditions, spices can contain large numbers of pathogenic microbes such as bacteria, molds and yeasts. Some microorganisms are known as human pathogens, which need disinfection mechanisms that minimize their potential harms to active substances in spices. Use of contaminated spices in foods can significantly decrease the shel...
