Det 36:e mÄnadsmötet den 2-3 juni i projektet run4life hölls precis som allt annat, online. Alla presentationer och diskussioner anpassades för att hÄllas online. Det var intressant att fÄ veta att alla experiment inkluderade i projektet fortsÀtter att gÄ framÄt och att folk flyttar in ihusen med separerande system i Helsingborg, Gent, Sneek och Vigo. Alla ser framemot det sista Äret av projektet och vi Àr exalterade över de framtida resultaten frÄn det.

The 36 month meeting during June 2-3 for the run4life project was like everything else held like an online meeting. All presentations and discussions were made online. It was interesting to hear that all the pilot areas included in the project were progressing and people are moving into the separating houses in Helsingborg, Gent, Sneek and Vigo. We all looking forward to the final year of the project and the exciting results we will get from it.

Ny publikation om Ascaris öde vid olika pH, temperatur och fuktnivÄer

En ny studie bedömde inaktiveringen av ascarisĂ€gg under olika förhĂ„llanden och observerade att exponeringen av ascarisĂ€gg för högt pH (10,5–12,5) vid temperaturer <27,5 ° C under >70 dagar inte hade nĂ„gon effekt pĂ„ Ă€ggens livskraft. För att pĂ„skynda inaktiveringen av STH Ă€r en ökning av behandlingstemperaturen mer effektiv Ă€n en pH-ökning. Alkaliskt pH inaktiverade inte Ă€ggen utan kan förbĂ€ttra effekten av ammoniak, vilket troligen finns i organiskt avfall.

New publication on fate of Ascaris at various pH, temperature and moisture levels

Published
By

A new study assessed the inactivation of Ascaris eggs under various conditions and observed that the exposure of Ascaris eggs to elevated pH (10.5–12.5) at temperatures <27.5 °C for >70 days had no effect on egg viability. To accelerate the inactivation of STH, an increase in the treatment temperature is more effective than pH increase. Alkaline pH alone did not inactivate the eggs but can enhance the effect of ammonia, which is likely to be present in organic wastes.
