The similarity between these results and the university building in which the PCB-containing caulking caused extensive contamination suggests that at least some of these buildings should be fully evaluated for PCB contamination.
Results: A total of 74 HCWs were evaluated for hand contamination.
Water quality was evaluated for microbiological contamination using membrane filtration.
In contrast, the majority of the MagMAX™ samples evaluated for gDNA contamination tested positive, indicating that this kit is inconsistent in its ability to effectively remove DNA.
A HPW delivery system supplied by an Elix 35 HPW purification unit was evaluated for microbiological contamination using both traditional microbial culture methodologies and the developed NAD assay and associated methodology.
Other IAC brands were not evaluated for residual OTA contamination.
Surfaces were evaluated for Nipah virus contamination by using reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR).
This watershed was evaluated for the possibility of contamination of near-shore coastal waters from domestic septic systems in the vicinity of a densely populated cottage area.
Samples were evaluated for levels of fecal contamination by using fecal coliforms and somatic coliphages.
The utility of a new ultrasound probe system equipped with an all-glass sonotrode, which lowers the possibility of sample contamination, was evaluated for the first time.
