Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment

Transmission-based precautions are for patients infected or suspected to be infected (or colonized) with organisms posing a significant risk to others. The transmission precautions include airborne and protective environment precautions.
Airborne precautions:
Use airborne precautions when treating patients known or suspected to have diseases that spread through the air—for example, tuberculosis or measles. These organisms are present in smaller droplets expelled by an infected person and...

Bioremediation

Bioremediation

Bioremediation is the use of prokaryotes, fungi, or plants to remove pollutants from the environment. This process has been used to remove harmful toxins in groundwater as a byproduct of agricultural run-off and also to clean up oil spills.

Asthma-I: Introduction

Asthma-I: Introduction

Asthma is a chronic respiratory ailment that requires careful management due to its varying symptoms and influencing factors. It is characterized by airway inflammation, bronchial hyperresponsiveness, and reversible airflow obstruction, leading to symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing. The symptom frequency and intensity may vary considerably over time. It is also linked to immune system responses to allergens and irritants, highlighting the complex...

Airport pollution prevention takes off.

Environmental Science & Technology

|June 14, 2011

Summary

Airports face pressure to stop chemical runoff polluting waterways. New strategies are needed to protect local water quality from aviation-related contaminants.

Area of Science:

Environmental Science
Water Quality Management
Airport Environmental Management

Background:

Airports and airlines generate chemical runoff.
This runoff poses a significant threat to local water bodies.
Regulatory and public pressure is mounting to address this environmental issue.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the sources and impacts of chemical runoff from airports.
To evaluate current mitigation strategies.
To propose enhanced methods for preventing water pollution.

Main Methods:

Analysis of chemical composition in airport runoff.
Hydrological modeling of contaminant transport.
Review of existing pollution control technologies and practices.
