Bactericidal effects of chlorine dioxide by respiratory inhibition
|
Abstract:
Objective]Chlorine dioxide(ClO2) is a highly effective disinfectant for food and potable water treatment.However,knowledge on its action mechanism remains unexplored.The present study aims to determine the role of respiratory inhibition in the bactericidal effects of ClO2.Methods] Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the ultra structural alteration of the mitochondrion.Fluorescence-based flow cytometry analysis was employed to determine the disruption of mitochondrion membrane potential.Re...
