Article Synopsis
  • * Results indicated that A/O-MBR experienced higher rates of fouling compared to A/A-MBR, and higher mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentrations correlated with longer cleaning cycles but also helped reduce fouling.
  • * The study found that extracellular polymer substances (EPS) and filamentous bacteria are key contributors to membrane fouling, with lower EPS levels and filamentous bacteria abundance in A/A-MBR suggesting better performance in removing nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater.

ABSTRACT We have developed a piezoelectric DNA-sensor based on DNA-RNA hybridization for the detection of two orchid viruses, Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV) and Odontoglossum ringspot virus (ORSV). Specific oligonucleotide probes modified with a mercaptohexyl group at the 5'-phosphate end were directly immobilized onto 10-MHz AT-cut quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). QCMs coated with such oligonucleotide probes were exposed to test solutions containing viral RNA for hybridization.
