Cyanotoxins are toxic substances produced by cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae, which can proliferate in water bodies under conditions like high nutrient levels and warm temperatures. ...
Biomedical liquid waste originating from healthcare facilities, laboratories, and research centers often contains infectious materials that, when discharged without proper treatment, can contribute to the spread of communicable diseases through public sewers. These diseases can affect individuals coming into contact with contaminated water sources ...
Another is the marine microbiome which consists of protists, bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses found in marine bodies of water. Marine microbiome studies highlight animal-microbial interactions such as symbiosis, mutualism, commensalism, etc. ...
Tidal creeks are defined by their salinity and can experience tidal activity miles inland. These bodies of water are also unique in part because they contain a great deal of organic matter; this heightened volume of biological activity results in lower average levels of dissolved oxygen (DO). ...
For that reason, crushing the feed finer assists to improve the usage rate of the feed. ( 2) Feeding setting. Aquatic animals consume in water, as well as the feed has to be put into the water. Therefore, aquatic feeds are needed to have a particular security in water to maintain their form and also nutrients from being lost. ...
What is a Gas Humidifier? A gas humidifier is an instrument for artificially warming and humidifying respiratory gas for mechanically ventilated patients. When natural respiratory humidification decreases pulmonic infections and damage to lung tissue may ...

High-performance liquid chromatography was conducted to quantify levels of triclosan in sewage water. Forty-four HPC were isolated and identified as the five main genera, namely, Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Enterococcus, Brevibacillus and Paenibacillus. ...
Beneficial bacteria are a natural solution for improving water quality in ponds, lakes, reservoirs, and canals. Beneficial microorganisms that are naturally present in the aquatic environment are typically at low levels, so they work much slower at reducing nutrients to maintain water quality. ...
Though pharmaceuticals and other contaminants of emerging concern are increasingly observed in inland water bodies, the occurrence and bioaccumulation of pharmaceuticals in estuaries and coastal ecosystems are poorly understood. ...
The taxonomic diversity and antibiotic resistance among freshwater bacterial communities in the major water bodies of Korea was examined using 437 penicillin-resistant, and 110 tetracycline-resistant bacterial isolates. ...
However, it also stressed that major environmental challenges remain. Water and air pollution have declined but not enough to achieve good ecological quality in all water bodies or to ensure good air quality in all urban areas. ...
These kind of ultrasound algae control systems can be used in all situations where water is stored, from large industrial water applications to small private pools or ornamental ponds. ...
High levels of fluoride (beyond 1.5 ppm) in ground water as source of drinking water are common in many parts of Andhra Pradesh, India, causing fluorosis. The study carried out in endemic Nalgonda District, Andhra Pradesh, has indicated that the fluoride-rich ground water present in the wells located down stream and close to the surface ...
Natural or anthropogenic eutrophication is the enrichment of a water body in nutrients, utilisable by algae. Sources of these nutrients are the atmosphere, rivers, soil erosion and runoff from catchment areas, sewage, industrial effluents, fertilizers, and waste disposal from animal farms. ...
