It concerns the public health aspects of drinking water treatment and distribution and describes the different water treatment processes (pretreatment, coagulation, flocculation,sedimentation, filtration, disinfection) and their impact on waterborne microbial pathogens and parasites. The quality of the treated water may however be degraded in the water distribution system (WDS). Microorganisms attach to surfaces, namely water distribution pipes, and form biofilms which allow their survival and growth, gene exchange and resistance to disinfection. The biofilm environment also allows the survival and potential growth of primary and opportunistic pathogens. The water distribution system may also harbor various organisms (e.g., algae, cyanobacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, free living amoebas, invertebrates, iron and manganese bacteria, nitrifying bacteria) which alter the quality of treated water. The biostability of the treated water is an important factor to consider if one wants to reduce bacterial growth in WDS. Various approaches/methodologies have been proposed to assess the bacterial growth potential in WDS. Due to bioterrorism threats to drinking water safety, one needs to know about the scope of this threat, the microbial agents involved and the safeguards that are put in place to protect this precious resource. The proposed book would not be complete if one fails to discuss the research on drinking water quality in developing countries which experience more the two million deaths resulting from diarrheal diseases. Various simple and low-cost treatment technologies are available for improving the quality of drinking water in developing countries. Finally, due a surge in bottled water sales around the world, there is a great need to know about the microbiological water quality of this resource which is often misunderstood by the public at large"--Provided by publisher. 606 $aDrinking water$xMicrobiology 606 $aDrinking water$xMicrobiology$xResearch 615 0$aDrinking water$xMicrobiology. 615 0$aDrinking water$xMicrobiology$xResearch. 676 $a628.101579 700 $aBitton$b Gabriel$0508095 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811584803321 996 $aMicrobiology of drinking water production and distribution$94064661 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03442nam 2200697Ia 450 001 9910963275503321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786613282767 010 $a9781118111062 010 $a1118111060 010 $a9781283282765 010 $a1283282763 010 $a9781118111055 010 $a1118111052 035 $a(CKB)2550000000054358 035 $a(EBL)818754 035 $a(OCoLC)759403166 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000535789 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11359127 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000535789 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10522364 035 $a(PQKB)11785898 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC818754 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL818754 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10501278 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL328276 035 $a(Perlego)1003691 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000054358 100 $a20110519d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aDesigning dendrimers /$fedited by Sebastiano Campagna, Paola Ceroni, Fausto Puntoriero 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aHoboken, NJ $cWiley$d2012 215 $a1 online resource (622 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780470433553 311 08$a0470433558 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aDesigning Dendrimers; CONTENTS; Preface; List of Contributors; 1 Dendrimers as quantized nano-modules in the nanotechnology field; 2 Novel methods for dendrimer synthesis; 3 Designer monomers to tailored dendrimers; 4 Dendronized polymers: state of the art in Zurich; 5 Shape persistent polyphenylene-based dendrimers; 6 Dendrimer chemistry with fullerenes; 7 Redox and fluorescent open core dendrimers; 8 Redox-active organometallic dendrimers as electrochemical sensors; 9 Shape-persistent conjugated dendrimers for organic electronics; 10 Fine-controlled metal assembly in dendrimers 327 $a11 Enlightening structure and properties of dendrimers by fluorescence depolarization12 Single-molecule spectroscopy of dendrimer systems; 13 Degradable dendrimers; 14 Porphyrin dendrimers as biological oxygen sensors; 15 Peptide dendrimers as artificial proteins; 16 Phosphorus-containing dendritic architectures: synthesis and applications; Index; Color Plates 330 $aResearch on dendrimers has exploded in the last 15 years, moving from the establishment of synthetic methodologies, particularly in the early years up to the end of nineties, towards sophisticated and wide-ranging applications.
