Kesan Ozon terhadap Patogen

Ozone Effects on Specific Bacteria, Viruses and Molds

Bacteria are microscopically small, single-cell creatures having a primitive structure. The bacteria body is sealed by a relatively solid cell membrane. Ozone interferes with the metabolism of bacterium-cells, most likely through inhibiting and blocking the operation of the enzymatic control system. A sufficient amount of ozone breaks through the cell membrane and this leads to the destruction of the bacteria.

Viruses are small, independent particles, built of crystals and macromolecules. Unlike bacteria, they multiply only within the host cell. They transform the protein of the host cell into proteins of their own. Ozone destroys most viruses by diffusing through the protein coat into the nucleic acid core, resulting in damage of the viral RNA. At higher concentrations, ozone destroys the capsid, or exterior protein shell, by oxidation, so the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (ribonucleic acid) structures of the microorganism are affected.

PATHOGEN DOSAGE
Aspergillus Niger (Black Mount) Destroyed by 1.5 to 2 mg/I

Proteus Bacteria Very susceptible
Pseudomonas Bacteria Very susceptible
Rhabdovirus virus Destroyed to zero level in less than 30 seconds with 0.1 to 0.8 mg/l
Salmonella Bacteria Very susceptible
Salmonella typhimurium 99.99% destruction at 0.25 mg/l for 1.67 minutes in water
Schistosoma Bacteria Very susceptible
Staph epidermidis 90% reduction at 0.1-ppm for 1.7 min
Staphylococci Destroyed by 1.5 to 2.0 mg/l
Stomatitis Virus Destroyed to zero level in less than 30 seconds with 0.1 to 0.8 mg/l
Streptococcus Bacteria Destroyed by 0.2 mg/l within 30 seconds
Verticillium dahliae 99.99 % destruction at 1.1 mg/l for 20 minutes
Vesicular Virus Destroyed to zero level in less than 30 seconds with 0.1 to 0.8 mg/l
Virbrio Cholera Bacteria Very susceptible
Vicia Faba progeny Ozone causes chromosome aberration and its effect is twice that observed by the action of X-rays

The effect of ozone below a certain critical concentration value is small or zero. Above this level all pathogens are eventually destroyed. This effect is called an “all-or-none response” and the critical level is called the “threshold value.”
