The use of STERIS Corporation's Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP®) technology as a potential biocide for aircraft decontamination was demonstrated in a cabin section of the Aircraft Environment Research Facility (an FAA-owned Boeing 747). When exposed to an appropriate concentration of VHP vapor in the cabin test section, biological indicators inoculated with 106 colony forming units of Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores demonstrated a total suppression...

"Environmental stress caused by water, expose structures to microbial colonization. This is evident when both minor dampness and mass flooding occur. The book describes how biological corrosion of buildings and structures resulting from these hazards are responsible for the adverse health effects on people exposed to these contaminated environments. It describes the key elements and methods for neutralising and removing microbiological contamination,...
