Journal ArticleDOI
Bactericidal activity of photocatalytic TiO(2) reaction: toward an understanding of its killing mechanism.
Pin-Ching Maness,Sharon Smolinski,Daniel M. Blake,Zheng Huang,Edward J. Wolfrum,William A. Jacoby +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that TiO2 photocatalysis promoted peroxidation of the polyunsaturated phospholipid component of the lipid membrane initially and induced major disorder in the E. coli cell membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bactericidal mode of titanium dioxide photocatalysis
Zheng Huang,Pin-Ching Maness,Daniel M. Blake,Edward J. Wolfrum,Sharon Smolinski,William A. Jacoby +5 more
TL;DR: Cell wall damage followed by cytoplasmic membrane damage leading to a direct intracellular attack has been proposed as the sequence of events when microorganisms undergo TiO 2 photocatalytic attack.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of the Photocatalytic Chemistry of Titanium Dioxide to Disinfection and the Killing of Cancer Cells
TL;DR: A review of the work that has been published on disinfection and the killing of cancer cells using photocatalytic chemistry with titanium dioxide (TiO2) can be found in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of a Molten Salt Heat Transfer Fluid in a Parabolic Trough Solar Field
David Kearney,Ulf Herrmann,P. Nava,Bruce Kelly,R. Mahoney,James E. Pacheco,R. Cable,N. Potrovitza,Daniel M. Blake,Hank Price +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the feasibility of utilizing a molten salt as the heat transfer fluid (HTF) and for thermal storage in a parabolic trough solar field to improve system performance and to reduce the levelized electricity cost was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photocatalytic Oxidation of Bacteria, Bacterial and Fungal Spores, and Model Biofilm Components to Carbon Dioxide on Titanium Dioxide-Coated Surfaces
Edward J. Wolfrum,Jie Huang,Daniel M. Blake,Pin-Ching Maness,Zheng Huang,Janene Fiest,William A. Jacoby +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, carbon mass balance and kinetic data for the total oxidation of cells, spores, and biomolecules deposited on illuminated titanium dioxide surfaces in contact with air were reported.
