The research was focused on the slurry-phase biodegradation of naphthalene in soil. Among ex situ techniques, the slurry phase offers the advantage of increased availability of contaminants to bacteria. From naphthalene contaminated soil, a Pseudomonas putida M8 strain capable to degrade naphthalene was selected. Experiments were performed in a stirred and oxygenated reactor. In this study, the...
BACKGROUND A food borne illness was reported in Ga-East district of Greater Accra Region among school children in May, 2007 after eating food provided at school. The objective of the investigation was to determine the source, mode of contamination and the causative agent. METHODS A case-control study was conducted, cases were schoolchildren with abdominal symptoms and controls were children o...
Asbestos in Contaminated Sites: Occupational and Environmental Exposures, Priorities for Remediation
The World Health Organization (WHO), in a public health perspective, defined contaminated sites as “Areas hosting or having hosted human activities which have produced or might produce environmental contamination of soil, surface or groundwater, air, food-chain, resulting or being able to result in human health impacts” (1). Asbestos has been largely used as a raw material in various industrial...
Plutonium-contaminated solid wastes including combustible, incombustible and chlorine contained waste have been generated during Mixed Oxide,(MOX) fuel fabrication by Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA). Incinerations of chlorinated wastes cause the problems related to corrosion of the equipments and dust loading in the vent exhaust system. The JAEA has designed and manufactured a new type incine...
results the main isolated fungal spores from the atmosphere of tabriz district were penicillium sp. (36.6%), cladosporidium sp. (26.8%) and aspergillus sp. (23.6%). conclusions the presence of fungal spores in the atmosphere as a part of air pollution can cause significant problems for human health, particularly in the respiratory tracts. background air contamination with fungal spores and the ...
Plant systems can be effective pump-and-treat systems for some contaminants. There is interest in finding inexpensive remediation technologies for sites contaminated by carbon tetrachloride and ethylene dibromide from grain fumigation activities. Experimental investigations have shown that volatile compounds such as trichloroethylene and methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) are released to the at...
The aerosolization process of fungal propagules of three species (Aspergillus versicolor, Penicillium melinii, and Cladosporium cladosporioides) was studied by using a newly designed and constructed aerosolization chamber. We discovered that fungal fragments are aerosolized simultaneously with spores from contaminated agar and ceiling tile surfaces. Concentration measurements with an optical pa...
Concern about contamination of fibreoptic endoscopes with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has generated a variety of disruptive and possibly unnecessary infection control practices in endoscopy units. Current recommendations on the cleaning and disinfection of endoscopes have been formulated without applied experimental evidence of the effective removal of HIV from endoscopes. To study the k...

The existence of airborne mycotoxins in mold-contaminated buildings has long been hypothesized to be a potential occupant health risk. However, little work has been done to demonstrate the presence of these compounds in such environments. The presence of airborne macrocyclic trichothecene mycotoxins in indoor environments with known Stachybotrys chartarum contamination was therefore investigate...
