What kinds of reactive oxygen species are created during the irradiation of oxygenated water with UVA? How do these reactive oxygen species contribute to the disinfection process? :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :!: :?: :!: :?: :!: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:

Hi, Shovia! Based on your question, I am assuming that you are doing something similar to the Science Buddies "Learn How to Disinfect Contaminated Water" experiment. Reactive Oxygen Species include a number of reactive molecules and free radicals derived from molecular oxygen. These include oxygen, peroxide, hydrogen peroxide, anymore. See this link for more info-http://www.biotek.com/resources/article ... ecies.html.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help,
Trystan.
