Impact/Purpose:

To inform the public.

Description:

Various media compositions (phosphate 1-50 mM; ionic strength 2.8-150 meq/L) significantly affected Nitrosomonas europaea monochloramine disinfection kinetics determined by Live/Dead BacLight (LD) and propidium monoazide quantitative PCR (PMA-qPCR) methods (lag coefficient 37-490 (LD) and 91-490 (PMA-qPCR) mg-min/L; Chick-Watson rate constant 4.0-9.3 x 10-3 (LD) and 1.6-9.6 x 10-3 (PMA-qPCR) L/mg-min).
