The Candida albicans Hwp2 is necessary for proper adhesion, biofilm formation and oxidative stress tolerance by Dimassi, Hani I.

“…It appears that Hwp2 is necessary for proper oxidative stress tolerance, adhesion and biofilm formation as an hwp2 null is more susceptible to increasing doses of hydrogen peroxide, unable to adhere efficiently to epithelial and endothelial cell lines and unable to form wild type biofilm levels.…”

Assessing Struvite Formation Potential at Wastewater Treatment Plants by Fattah, Kazi Parvez

“…Wastewater treatment plants, especially those employing secondary treatment and anaerobic sludge digestion, have historically encountered phosphate precipitates, one of the commonest being struvite, that foul and encrust the sludge return lines, and the associated pumps and valves. This growth of ‘uncontrolled’ struvite increases pumping and maintenance cost, as well as reduces the overall capacity of the plant piping system in terms of lost hydraulic capacity and lowered biological treatment capacity. …”
