Study of microbial inactivation by Cu(II)-based disinfection systems and elucidation of microbicidal mechanism

- Study on the inactivation efficiency and mechanism of Cu(II)-based disinfection systems combined with various compounds.

- Inactivation of various surrogate microorganisms (e.g. E. coli, S. aureus, MS2 bacteriophage, PhiX174) and antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB)

- Determination of microbial inactivation kinetics by conventional disinfectant (Cl2, O3, UV) in sea water, and determination of total residual oxidants (TRO).
