Comparison of Byproduct formation in Waters Treated with Chlorine and Iodine: Relevance to Point-of-Use Treatment

TL;DR: Compared disinfection byproduct formation from a range of iodine-based disinfectants at their recommended dosages to chlorination and chloramination under overdosing conditions, iodoform was the predominant trihalomethane (THM) forme during chlorination or chloramination.

Evaluation of disinfectant efficacy against biofilm and suspended bacteria in a laboratory swimming pool model.

TL;DR: The research demonstrated the importance of studying a biofilm in addition to the planktonic bacteria to assess the microbial dynamics that exist in a swimming pool model.

Viricidal capability of resin-triiodide demand-type disinfectant.

TL;DR: Polyoma, Newcastle disease virus, and adenovirus, as well as two coliphages, lambda and T4, were inactivated by strong base quaternary ammonium anion-exchange resin-triiodide.

Use of staphylococci as indicators of swimming pool pollution.

TL;DR: It is obvious that contamination of air, eating utensils, swimming pool waters, and similar materials is not necessarily best measured by determining the presence of organisms derived from the intestinal, and the equally logical use of indicator organismsderived from the nose, mouth, and related structures has lagged behind.

Factors Influencing the Occurrence of High Numbers of Iodine-Resistant Bacteria in Iodinated Swimming Pools

TL;DR: Comparing the microbial flora of four alternately chlorinated and iodinated swimming pools showed that, although viable counts were significantly higher during the iodinated periods, the specific types of bacteria determined were either fewer than or the same as in chlorinated periods.
