Table 2 Effect of various biocide treatments on the IMS method test signal
From: Comparing methods of determining Legionella spp. in complex water matrices
Biocide | Contact time (min) | Reduction in signal for IMS method (%) |
|---|---|---|
Hyplochlorite, 3 ppm | 60 | 99 |
DBNPA 20% | 60 | 90 |
Mefacide, 100 ppm | 60 | 5 |
