Abstract:

With decreasing critical size of micro-electronic fabrication imposed by ITRS today, Front Opening Unified Pod (FOUP) has been designed to transport the silicon wafers in the 300 mm semiconductor fab to decrease the particles contamination, without taking the Airborne Molecular Contamination (AMC) and moisture problems into account. Various methods of AMC decontamination methods has been introduced in past, such as purging mini-environment with nitrogen, however the efficiency of its yield improvement capacity has not been proven. An ultimate AMC decontamination method with vacuum decontamination and passivation technology shows a very good efficiency on the AMC removal mechanism, with a direct impact on the yield improvement.

Abstract:

Abstract. Accurately characterizing the instrument line shape (ILS) of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) is challenging and highly important due to its high spectral resolution and requirement for retrieval accuracy (0. 25 %) compared to previous spaceborne grating spectrometers. On-orbit ILS functions for all three bands of the OCO-2 instrument have been derived using its frequent solar measurements and high-resolution solar reference spectra. The solar reference spectrum generated from the 2016 version of the Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) solar line list shows significant improvements in the fitting residual compared to the solar reference spectrum currently used in the version 7 Level 2 algorithm in the O2 A band. The analytical functions used to represent the ILS of previous grating spectrometers are found to be inadequate for the OCO-2 ILS. Particularly, the hybrid Gaussian and super-Gaussian functions may introduce spurious variations, up to 5 % of the ILS width, depending on the spectral sampling position, when there is a spectral undersampling. Fitting a homogeneous stretch of the preflight ILS together with the relative widening of the wings of the ILS is insensitive to the sampling grid position and accurately captures the variation of ILS in the O2 A band between decontamination events. These temporal changes of ILS may explain the spurious signals observed in the solar-induced fluorescence retrieval in barren areas.

Full text

Abstract:

The decontamination of Legionella pneumophila and other heterotrophic microbes by heat flushing in four legionellae-positive hot water systems was studied. Before the decontamination procedure, the concentration of legionellae varied from 3.0 × 10−3 to 3.5 × 10−5 cfu/L and the hot water temperature from 43.6 to 51.5 °C. During the contamination the temperature was raised to 60–70 °C. All taps and showers were cleaned from sediments and flushed with hot water twice a day for several minutes. The decontamination lasted for 2–4 weeks. In a few weeks the heat-flushing method reduced the concentration of legionellae below the detection limit (50 cfu/L) in the hot circulating water system just before and after the heat exchanger. The high hot water temperature also decreased the viable counts of heterotrophic bacteria, fungi, and total microbial cells determined by the epifluorescent microscopy. However, the eradication of legionellae failed in a water system where the water temperature remained below 60 °C in some parts of the system. After the decontamination, the temperature of hot water was lowered to 55 °C. Thereafter, all the studied hot water systems were recolonized by legionellae within a few months, showing that the decontamination by heat flushing was temporary. Also, the contamination of other bacteria increased in a few months to the level before decontamination.Key words: legionellae, hot water system, decontamination, water temperature, heterotrophic bacteria.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to comparing the performance of disinfectants at different concentrations of a contaminating agent. Contamination of objects can occur at any stage of the study, so effective methods of decontamination should be used to prevent it, which at the same time should be safe for laboratory staff. The purpose of the work is to check the effectiveness of disinfectants while working in biological laboratories and to determine their effects on the genetic information of the cell, the effect on the inhibition of PCR reaction and DNA degradation. The mechanisms of influence on a cell and DNA of chemical solutions are analyzed: Винсепт експресс, Бациллол АФ, Дезактин 0, 2 %, WIP'ANIOS Premium, DNAZap™ PCR DNA Degradation Solutions, 70 % и 96 % ethyl alcohols, and physical methods: ultraviolet radiation, alcohol treatment followed by calcination in the flame of the burner and treatment with bidistilled deionized water. While research the contaminating DNA is represented by the synthetic genomic DNA produced by the Promega company. As a result of the pilot study, DNAZap ™ PCR DNA Degradation Solutions and bidistilled deionized water had the highest decontamination efficiency. Bidistilled deionized water can be used to the fullest in the laboratory if medical waste disposal standards are met. Other methods showed an efficiency of more than 99.98% which also allows them to be used when working in a biological laboratory, following the suggested recommendations. The presented methods of decontamination did not cause inhibition of the PCR reaction. Preserved, after decontamination treatment, DNA for most agents had a low level of degradation. After being treated with ultraviolet radiation, the level of DNA degradation was medium which means that ultraviolet radiation destroys long strands of DNA, leaving strands unbroken up to 200 bp. In addition, increasing the concentration of contaminating DNA did not affect the change in the efficiency of decontamination substances. All the decontaminated substances analyzed can be modified in molecular genetic laboratories.

Abstract:

The present work reveals a comprehensive decontamination study on real and simulated biological and chemical warfare agents (BCWA). The emphasis was on evaluating the antimicrobial activity against real biological warfare agents, such as Bacillus anthracis, and also the capacity of neutralizing real chemical warfare agents, such as mustard gas or soman, by employing three different types of organic solutions enriched with ZnO, TiO2, and zeolite nanoparticles, specially designed for decontamination applications. The capacity of decontaminating BCWA was evaluated through specific investigation tools, including surface monitoring with the swabs method, minimum inhibitory (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) evaluations, time-kill tests for microorganisms, and GC-MS for monitoring chemical agents on different types of surfaces (glass, painted metal, rubber, and cotton butyl rubber). These tests revealed high decontamination factors for BCWA even after only 10 min, accomplishing the requirements imposed by NATO standards. At the completion of the decontamination process, the formulations reached 100% efficacy for Bacillus anthracis after 10–15 min, for soman after 20–30 min, and for mustard gas in an interval comprised between 5 and 24 h depending on the type of surface analyzed.

Abstract:

The pathology of cranioorbital region draws attention of surgeons of various specialities because of close and difficult anatomic mutual relation of a cavity of a skull, an orbit and additional sinuses of a nose. To various pathological processes, in particular to tumours of this localization, were long since developed extracranial and transcranial approaches depending on primary diffusion of pathological processes. The group of extracranial approaches is especially numerous and includes both transorbital, and approaches through additional sinuses of a nose. Division of transcranial approaches is based on presence or absence of necessity of mobilisation in the course of approach supraorbital edge.

Abstract:

Electronic transitions of the type 3Δ–3Σ are forbidden in the absence of spin–orbit or orbit–rotation coupling, but spin–orbit perturbations produce three transition moments, two perpendicular (Y1 and Y2) and one parallel (Z1) while low-order orbit–rotation couplings introduce three further perpendicular transition moments (X1, X2, and X3). Formulas are presented for the rotational line strengths in a 3Δ(a)–3Σ(int) transition in terms of these parameters and are applied to recent data of Coquart and Ramsay for the Herzberg III system [Formula: see text] of molecular oxygen. It is shown that all six parameters are significant, and that there are noticeable departures from the first-order relations Y1 = Y2, Z1 = 0, X1 = X2 = X3. The observation of orbit–rotation intensity effects led to the first identification of lines of the Ω′ = 3 subbands of the 4–0 to 7–0 bands of the Herzberg III system, which are forbidden for the spin–orbit mechanism. The wave numbers of these lines are in satisfactory agreement with the analysis of the A′3Δu → a1Δg emission by Slanger and Huestis.

Abstract:

In visual tracking, the tracking model must be updated online, which often leads to undesired inclusion of corrupted training samples, and hence inducing tracking failure. We present a locality preserving correlation filter (LPCF) integrating a novel and generic decontamination approach, which mitigates the model drift problem. Our decontamination approach maintains the local neighborhood feature points structures of the bounding box center. This proposed tracking-result validation approach models not only the spatial neighborhood relationship but also the topological structures of the bounding box center. Additionally, a closed-form solution to our approach is derived, which makes the tracking-result validation process could be accomplished in only milliseconds. Moreover, a dimensionality reduction strategy is introduced to improve the real-time performance of our translation estimation component. Comprehensive experiments are performed on OTB-2015, LASOT, TrackingNet. The experimental results show that our decontamination approach remarkably improves the overall performance by 6.2%, 12.6%, and 3%, meanwhile, our complete algorithm improves the baseline by 27.8%, 34.8%, and 15%. Finally, our tracker achieves the best performance among most existing decontamination trackers under the real-time requirement.

Abstract:

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an illness caused by a novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease was first identified as a cluster of respiratory illness in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, in December 2019, and has rapidly spread across the globe to greater than 200 countries. Healthcare providers are at an increased risk for contracting the disease due to occupational exposure and require appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including N95 respirators. The rapid worldwide spread of high numbers of COVID-19 cases has facilitated the need for a substantial supply of PPE that is largely unavailable in many settings, thereby creating critical shortages. Creative solutions for the decontamination and safe reuse of PPE to protect our frontline healthcare personnel are essential. Here, we describe the development of a process that began in late February 2020 for selecting and implementing the use of hydrogen peroxide vapor (HPV) as viable method to reprocess N95 respirators. Since pre-existing HPV decontamination chambers were not available, we optimized the sterilization process in an operating room after experiencing initial challenges in other environments. Details are provided about the prioritization and implementation of processes for collection and storage, pre-processing, HPV decontamination, and post-processing of filtering facepiece respirators. Important lessons learned from this experience include, developing an adequate reserve of PPE for effective reprocessing and distribution, and identifying a suitable location with optimal environmental controls (i.e. operating room). Collectively, information presented here provides a framework for other institutions considering decontamination procedures for N95 respirators. Impact statement There is a critical shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) around the globe. This article describes the safe collection, storage, and decontamination of N95 respirators using hydrogen peroxide vapor (HPV). This article is unique because it describes the HPV process in an operating room, and is therefore, a deployable method for many healthcare settings. Results presented here offer creative solutions to the current PPE shortage.

AbstractWe infer the absolute time dependence of kinematic gas temperature along a proposed orbit of molecular clouds in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Galactic Center (GC). Ammonia gas temperature maps are one of the results of the “Survey of Water and Ammonia in the Galactic Center” (SWAG, PI: J. Ott); the dynamical model of molecular clouds in the CMZ was taken from Kruijssen et al. (2015). We find that gas temperatures increase as a function of time in both regimes before and after the cloud passes pericenter on its orbit in the GC potential. This is consistent with the recent proposal that pericenter passage triggers gravitational collapse. Other investigated quantities (line width, column density, opacity) show no strong sign of time dependence but are likely dominated by cloud-to-cloud variations.

Abstract:

The new coronavirus began to spread around the world in late 2019. Initially, it was found only in China, but in the following days there were reported cases of infections in other countries. Subsequently, based on taxonomy, phylogeny, and accepted practice, the virus was officially designated as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). As a result of the rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 in different countries around the world, on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) announced a status change in the disease caused by this coronavirus—from an epidemic to a pandemic disease. Although the world is taking unprecedented efforts to control the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the number of confirmed cases is rising. Therefore, effective preventive measures are needed in order to limit the spread of illness. The prevention measures are mainly based on information on the virus transmission routes, its environmental stability, and persistence on commonly touched surfaces. Social distancing, mask usage, and good hygiene practice are the most important recommendations for general public. Healthcare professionals who are directly involved in SARS-CoV-2 patients care are more exposed to virus infection and additional protection measures are necessary, including protective suits, aprons, face shields, goggles, and gloves. Due to the stability of SARS-CoV-2 on different surfaces, such as glass, paper, or wood, proper disinfection is crucial. Several studies have shown that despite the virus’s stability, it is sensitive to various disinfectants, such as ethanol, isopropanol, sodium hypochlorite, or hydrogen peroxide. These findings underline the importance of having comprehensive knowledge about SARS-CoV-2 and multidirectional strategies in order to limit the spread of the virus. This review is a summary of the most important information about SARS-CoV-2, such as its stability on different surfaces, protection strategies, and decontamination options.

Abstract:

Chemical simulants have long been used in human trials of mass decontamination to determine the efficacy of decontamination interventions against more toxic agents. Until now, reliance has mostly been on individual chemicals as surrogates to specific agents (e.g., methyl salicylate for sulphur mustard). A literature review was conducted to identify chemicals that had been previously tested on human volunteers and that represent diverse physicochemical characteristics in order to create a repository for chemical simulants. Of the 171 unique chemicals identified, 78 were discounted for the risk they could pose to human volunteers, 39 were deemed suitable for use, and a further 54 were considered to be possible simulants but would require further research. Suitable simulants included both solid and liquid chemicals spanning a wide range of physicochemical properties including molecular weight, octanol/water partition coefficient, vapour pressure, and solubility. This review identifies an array of potential simulants suitable for use in human volunteer decontamination studies and is of relevance to future studies on systemic absorption and surface decontamination.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Drilling and laboratory manipulations of glacial ice cores introduce contemporary microbes and biomolecules onto the cores. We report herein a systematic comparative study of several decontamination protocols. Only treatment with 5% sodium hypochlorite eliminated all external contaminating microbes and nucleic acids while maintaining the integrity of those within the cores.
