Low-cost, local production of a safe and effective disinfectant for resource-constrained communities
Improved hygiene depends on the accessibility and availability of effective disinfectant solutions. These disinfectant solutions are unavailable to many communities worldwide due to resource limitations, among other constraints. Safe and effective chlorine-based disinfectants can be produced via simple electrolysis of salt water, providing a low-cost and reliable option for on-site, local production of disinfectant solutions to improve sanitation…
Data-Sparse Prediction of High-Risk Schools for Lead Contamination in Drinking Water
Childhood lead exposure through drinking water has long-term effects on cognition and development, and is a significant public health concern. The comprehensive lead testing of public schools entails high expense and time. In prior work, random forest modeling was used successfully to predict the likelihood of lead contamination in the drinking water from schools in the states of California and Massachusetts. In those studies, data from 70% of th…
Community Perceptions of Arsenic Contaminated Drinking Water and Preferences for Risk Communication in California’s San Joaquin Valley
Due to chronic exposure to elevated levels of arsenic in drinking water, thousands of Californians have increased risk for internal cancers and other adverse health effects. The mortality risk of cancer is 1 in 400 people exposed to above 10 μg/L of arsenic in their drinking water. The purpose of this community assessment was to understand the perceptions and awareness of the residents and public water representatives in rural, unincorporated far…

Epidemiologic studies and control programs in alcoholism. II. State and municipal alcoholism programs and their relationship to health services
Deposition on indoor surfaces is an important removal mechanism for tobacco smoke particles.We report measurements of deposition rates of environmental tobacco smoke particles in a room-size chamber.The deposition rates were determined from the changes in measured concentrations by correcting for the effects of coagulation and ventilation.The air flow turbulent intensity parameter was determined independently by measuring the air velocities in th…
