“…Associated species are most commonly C. sphaerospermum, P. chrysogenum, A. Niger, A. versicolor, S. chartarum. Some of them, because of their wellknown toxic and allergenic roles, are included among the potentially pathogenic species listed by the French Higher Council for Public Health and the France Environment Health Association [2,21,101].…”

“…In Northern Europe and North America, the prevalence of mold contamination in buildings is estimated at between 20% and 40% [8]. Among the hundreds of microbial species that can be found in indoor environments [9][10][11], some are listed as potentially pathogenic species by the French High Council for Public Health and the France Environment Health Association [8,12,13]. Various studies have reported associations of mold growth with respiratory diseases in buildings, especially damp and water-damaged buildings [14].…”

Antibacterial Activity of TiO2 Photocatalyst Alone or in Coatings on E. coli: The Influence of Methodological Aspects

Abstract:In damp environments, indoor building materials are among the main proliferation substrates for microorganisms. Photocatalytic coatings, including nanoparticles of TiO 2 , could be a way to prevent microbial proliferation or, at least, to significantly reduce the amount of microorganisms that grow on indoor building materials. Previous works involving TiO 2 have already shown the inactivation of bacteria by the photocatalysis process. This paper studies the inactivation of Escherichia coli bacteria by photocatalysis involving TiO 2 nanoparticles alone or in transparent coatings (varnishes) and investigates different parameters that significantly influence the antibacterial activity. The antibacterial activity of TiO 2 was evaluated through two types of experiments under UV irradiation: (I) in slurry with physiological water (stirred suspension); and (II) in a drop deposited on a glass plate. The results confirmed the difference in antibacterial activity between simple drop-deposited inoculum and inoculum spread under a plastic film, which increased the probability of contact between TiO 2 and bacteria (forced contact). In addition, the major effect of the nature of the suspension on the photocatalytic disinfection ability was highlighted. Experiments were also carried out at the surface of transparent coatings formulated using nanoparticles of TiO 2 . The results showed significant antibacterial activities after 2 h and 4 h and suggested that improving the formulation would increase efficiency. OPEN ACCESSCoatings 2014, 4 671
