Implication

This study demonstrates that reactive halogen species boost Aspergillus niger spore inactivation in seawater, highlighting the efficacy of UV/PMS treatment.

Key Points

The UV/PMS process achieves complete inactivation of Aspergillus niger spores in seawater, outperforming deionized water.
Reactive halogen species generated during treatment significantly enhance the inactivation efficiency, surpassing typical results.
Quenching experiments reveal that these species disrupt cellular integrity of spores, contributing to effective inactivation.
The findings suggest that reactive halogen species have a crucial role in disinfection processes, especially in saline environments.
