Microemulsion-enhanced remediation of soils contaminated with organochlorine pesticides.

abstract：:Standard filtration methods have been characterized by poor recoveries when processing large-volume samples of environmental water. A method to pre-remove particulates present in turbid waters would be necessary to enhance recovery of protozoan oocysts. Particulate separation can be achieved by the proposed multiplex ...
