Bacterial bioluminescence as a tool for monitoring the real-time activity of antimicrobial agents (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Continuous fluorescence excitation-emission matrix monitoring of river organic matter (2010)
Journal Article

Real-time fluorescence monitoring has been mostly performed in marine systems, with little progress being made in the application of fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM) spectroscopy, especially for freshwater monitoring. This paper presents... Read More about Continuous fluorescence excitation-emission matrix monitoring of river organic matter.

Evaluation of the efficacy of electrochemically activated solutions against nosocomial pathogens and bacterial endospores (2010)
Journal Article

Aims: Electrochemically activated solutions (ECAS) are generated from halide salt solutions via specially designed electrolytic cells. The active solutions are known to possess high biocidal activity against a wide range of target microbial species,...

The effect of temperature on the fluorescence of DOM (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

It is understood that all fluorescence analyses essentially observes the fluorescence of a given sample in a 'quenched state'. Even so, detailed literature concerning the effects of lower temperatures (below 4 degrees Celsius) is surprisingly sparse.... Read More about The effect of temperature on the fluorescence of DOM.

Real-time monitoring of river water quality using in-line continuous acquisition of fluorescence excitation and emission matrices (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Birmingham, UK. River water was diverted to a portable laboratory via a continuous flow pump and filter system. Fluorescence excitation-emission matrices data was recorded every 3 minutes using a flow cell (1cm pathlength) coupled to a fiber optic pr...

Changes in freshwater organic matter fluorescence intensity with freezing/thawing and dehydration/rehydration (2009)
Journal Article

The effects of photodegradation and biodegradation upon aquatic organic matter lability have been extensively researched in all aquatic systems because of the impact of these. processes upon carbon cycling, with most studies undertaken on the dissolv...

Can fluorescence spectrometry be used as a surrogate for the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) test in water quality assessment? An example from South West England (2008)
Journal Article

The fluorescence intensities of tryptophan-like, tyrosine-like and humic-like materials were determined using excitation-emission-matrices (EEMs) for a wide range of samples including natural surface waters, sewage and industrial effluents and waters...

Fluorescence analysis of dissolved organic matter in natural, waste and polluted waters - A review (2007)
Journal Article

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in aquatic systems originates from a range of sources. Some is allochthonous, transported from the surrounding landscape to the water body, and is derived from and influenced by the geology, land use and hydrology of it...

The rapid detection of methyl tert-butyl ether (MtBE) in water using a prototype gas sensor system (2005)
Journal Article

Rapid and direct determination of tryptophan in water using synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy (2003)
Journal Article

Water samples from lakes situated in and around the area of Tsukuba Science City, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, were analysed using synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy and HPLC. The spectra revealed a major emission peak (λemm) at 340nm corresponding... Read More about Rapid and direct determination of tryptophan in water using synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy.

The differentiation of biodegradable and non-biodegradable dissolved organic matter in wastewaters using fluorescence spectroscopy (2002)
Journal Article

The chemical and biochemical oxygen demand values of a number of synthetic and wastewater samples were determined using fluorescence spectroscopy. Treated and untreated sewage samples were obtained from a local sewage treatment works while synthetic...
