Examination of ultraviolet germicidal radiation for inactivating microorganisms in melted snow and ice samples
See t.ly/loF2 — The storage of melted snow and/or ice samples from snow pits and ice cores in a refrigerator for long durations may be limited by an increase in particle concentration caused by microbial growth after approximately 1–2 weeks. In this study, we examined an ultraviolet (UV) disinfection method for the storage of melted snow and/or ice samples. Surface snow obtained from Glacier No. 31 in the Suntar-Khayata Range, eastern Siberia, Russia was divided into two portions for UV treatment and untreated controls. Particle concentrations in the samples were measured using a Coulter counter (Multisizer 4e; Beckman Coulter,…
