The results indicate that tertiary structure facilitates secondary chlorine transfer reactions of chloramines formed on His and Lys side chains. In light of these data, second-order rate constants for reactions of Lys side chain and Gly chloramines with Trp side chains and disulfide bonds have been...
which works partly by freeing the chlorine that has already formed compounds with contaminants. You can also simply add more chlorine, and pouring household bleach into the pool is one way to do this. Be sure the pH is in the proper
After the games are over, the structures will be disassembled, then moved and reassembled as permanent neighborhood pools within the Sevran and Bagnolet Est Ensemble neighborhoods in Paris. It’s actually the third life for this particular piscine; the pieces originally formed the pool used in the...
Chlorine alone has long been the typical element for this and we are all familiar with that taste in unfiltered tap water. For various reasons (to be discussed in a moment) some plants are switching to chloramines instead. They are both important because of their potential health impact. ...
The water is then distrib- uted to the consumer with a residual chemi- cal disinfectant (chlorine, chlorine dioxide, or chloramines) as a last barrier against contamination. The choice between the two approaches is based on balancing the risk of microbial contamination, exposure to disinfection by...
and this may be despite the fact that the total chlorine concentration is within acceptable limits. This happens when much of the chlorine has formed compounds -- called chloramines -- with bacteria and other contaminants and is no longer available for sanitizing. Chloramines emit an odor, so th...
