1. Effects of starvation and haemorrhage on the large bowel coliform flora with special reference to bacterial mucosal adherence and translocation
Sammanfattning : Intestinal bacteria translocating to extra-intestinal sites have been suggested to play a role in the etiology of posttraumatic infections and multiple organ failure. In the present study, effects of haemorrhagic stress and /or starvation on the gut flora and bacterial translocation were studied in the rat. LÄS MER
2. Microbial status of irrigation water for vegetables as affected by cultural practices : agronomic aspects
Sammanfattning : Human pathogens present in irrigation water can be transmitted to plants. Consumption of fruits and vegetables irrigated with pathogen-contaminated water can cause illness in humans. Leafy vegetables that are consumed fresh are particularly prone to cause such illnesses. LÄS MER
3. Pathogen inactivation and regrowth in organic waste during biological treatment
Sammanfattning : After proper sanitation treatment, organic wastes such as animal by-products, e.g.catering waste, slaughterhouse waste and manure can be used as fertilisers and soil conditioners and thereby contribute to a sustainable society. LÄS MER
4. Hydrodynamic and Microbiological Modelling of Water Quality in Drinking Water Sources
Sammanfattning : Faecal contamination of drinking water sources poses risks for waterborne disease outbreaks. To manage these risks the fate and transport of faecal contamination in a drinking water source need to be understood and quantitatively described. LÄS MER
5. Ammonia sanitisation of human excreta : treatment technology for production of fertiliser
Sammanfattning : Safe reuse of plant nutrients from human excreta increases the sustainability of society and promotes health, both by decreasing disease transmission and by increasing agricultural production. This thesis examined ammonia sanitisation as a treatment method to produce a hygienically safe fertiliser from source-separated urine and faeces. LÄS MER
