Coagulant dosing is one of the major operation costs in water treatment plant, and conventional control of this process for most plants is generally determined by the jar test.

Abstract:
Enhancing the performance of slow sand filter pre-treatment with alum (i.e. direct or contact filtration) has been proposed as an alternative to overcome limitations of conventional gravel (roughing) pre-filtration. Experimental results revealed high turbidity reduction efficiencies in alum-dosed pre-filtration. However, due to the alum coagulation, the nature of the particulates in the pre-treatment effluent changed and had a potential to shorten the downstream slow sand filter run lengths by approximately 50% under the conditions tested. Hence, depending on the effluent turbidity levels the

The influence of dosing sequence of lime and alum as a coagulant in the treatment of soft humic waters (requiring pre-alkalinisation of raw water) was studied.

A recombinant staphylococcal enterotoxin B (rSEB) containing 3 distinct mutations in the major histocompatibility complex class II binding site was combined with an alum adjuvant (Alhydrogel) and used as a potential parenteral vaccine named STEBVax. Consenting healthy adult volunteers (age range, 23 to 38 years) participated in a first-in-human open-label dose escalation study of parenteral doses of STEBVax ranging from 0.01 μg up to 20 μg.

Abstract:
Vaccine development is one of the most significant achievements of humans in Biomedicine. These vaccines are usually supplemented with adjuvants to enhance immunity. Apart from alum which is recognized as the gold standard, one may increase the quality of the vaccine by adding other adjuvants or agents that boost the immune response with improved delivery vehicles such as liposomes, immune-stimulating complexes (ISCOMs), and micro/nanospheres. Adjuvants stimulate the effectiveness of a vaccine by activating the immune system to respond more strongly to the vaccine, resulting in enhanced immuni

Background: Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is the most effective treatment for atopic allergic diseases, aiming to induce regulatory T cells (Treg) that modify the immune response to specific allergens, which leads to long-term tolerance and reduced symptoms. Enhancing Treg activity is crucial for improving immunotherapy outcomes. In a previous murine model study, we examined the effects of a synthetic methylated DNA oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) from the Bl-T2 m5C motif of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis.

High dose methylprednisolone (HDMP) and alemtuzumab (alem) both have activity in 17p disease and work independently of TP53. Prior work has demonstrated that giving HDMP/alem simultaneously is efficacious, but toxic. We hypothesized that giving these agents sequentially with ofatumumab (ofa) would maintain efficacy while decreasing toxicity. METHODS

As we gain knowledge of the limitations of existing vaccines, it is of interest to understand if changes in product presentation or combinations of multiple vaccine modalities can further improve immunological outcomes.MethodsWe investigate

Abstract Lake Chivero, Harare's major raw water source, is eutrophic and algae-infested. Consequently, the conventional water treatment processes (CWTPs) that are used at Harare's main water treatment works, Morton Jaffray Water Treatment Works (MJWTW), have been ineffective in algae removal. This study was carried out to investigate the feasibility of using dissolved air flotation (DAF) to remove algae at MJWTW. Experiments were carried out using a 60-L DAF pilot system with a hydraulic loading rate of 7 m/h. Raw and treated water was characterised in terms of turbidity, pH and electrical con
