  • The Germicidal Effect of the Open Air in Different Parts of the Netherlands
    J. Eyg., Camb. (1977), 78, 175 175 Printed in Great Britain The germicidal effect of the open air in different parts of The Netherlands BY G. DE MIK &sn IDA DE GROOT Medical Biological Laboratory TNO, 139 Lange Kleiweg, Rijsivijk 2100, The Netherlands {Received 4 August 1976) SUMMARY Using the microthread technique the survival of Escherichia coli MRE 162 in open air was measured in different parts of The Netherlands. The presence of bactericidal compounds (open air factor = OAF) could be demonstrated on several days and quantitated in relative units of OAF concentration. In the absence of ozone the OAF concentration was always low. In the presence of ozone the OAF concentration was dependent on wind direction. At the selected microthread exposure sites air from areas with high traffic intensity contributed more to OAF production than air from industrial areas. OAF production is prob- ably related to the nature of hydrocarbons in the air. INTRODUCTION" In 1968 May & Druett described a technique (the 'microthread' technique) which made it possible to subject micro-organisms to any gaseous environment of interest for extended periods of time, during which their loss of viability might be assayed. In this procedure airborne micro-organisms are held on ultrafine spider threads, to provide a ' captive' aerosol. Using this technique it was demonstrated that the survival rate of Escherichia coli 162 exposed to open air is very low on certain days, in contrast with the survival in ' clean' air at the same relative humidity and temperature (Druett & Packman, 1968). Not only Escherichia coli, but also Serratia marcescens, Franciscella tvlarensis, Brucdla suis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and a group C Streptococcus appeared sensitive to open air (May, Druett & Packman, 1969).

A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Ingrid Frederika DeSanto 2018 ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Righteous Citizens: The Lynching of Johan and Cornelis DeWitt, The Hague, Collective Violence, and the Myth of Tolerance in the Dutch Golden Age, 1650-1672 by Ingrid Frederika DeSanto Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles Professor Margaret C Jacob, Chair In The Hague, on August 20 th , 1672, the Grand Pensionary of Holland, Johan DeWitt and his brother Cornelis DeWitt were publicly killed, their bodies mutilated and hanged by the populace of the city. This dissertation argues that this massacre remains such an unique event in Dutch history, that it needs thorough investigation. Historians have focused on short-term political causes for the eruption of violence on the brothers’ fatal day. This work contributes to the existing historiography by uncovering more long-term political and social undercurrents in Dutch society. In doing so, issues that may have been overlooked previously are taken into consideration as well.
