Tio2 mediated photocatalytic inactivation of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria using fluorescent light
Photocatalytic inactivation of six different species of bacteria using fluorescent light and TiO2 was conducted. Up to five surface loadings of TiO2 varying from 234-8662 mg/m2, impregnated on membrane filters were used with fluorescent light of constant illuminance of 3900 Lux for the inactivation...
