Reactions of Microorganisms with Atomic Oxygen Radical Anions: Damage of Cells and Irreversible Inactivation

Figure 5

(a) Typical TOF spectrum shows the anionic intermediate species formed in the O--induced inactivation processes (O-: 250 nA/cm2). (b) The intensity changes of H2O-, CO-, and CO2- with different O- intensity. Sample: E. coli, : , exposure size: 1.8 cm2.
