1. Intoxication- toxin already grew in food. ( No fever just vomit)
2. Infection -takes time to grow inside the host then make you sick. (
Most common food intox is?
Viruses: IE-Norovirus
Most common food infection is
Staph A
Back flow ?
Unwanted flow of water in the reverse direction. 2 reasons is back pressure and back siphonage.
Back siphonage?
Reversal of flow due to negative pressure; uses a atmospheric vacuum breaker.
Back pressure?
Where contamination is forced into potable water system through connection that has higher pressure than the water system.
Air gap req?
2X what ever the inch. 1 inch min
Double check valve:
used in low haz situation; when backflow source may be polluted NOT CONTAMINATED (Nuisance)
Malaria? Most dangerous one.
Protozan most dangerous is :Plasmodium Falciparum . Others:
P. Vivax and P malariae
Sprochete for LYME DISEASE?
Borielia Burgdurfoeri
Spirochete for RELAPSING FEVER?
Borrelia Hermsi; Ornithodoros hermsi (Soft tick)
What Chemical is used to Raise the pH in Pools?
Sodium Carbonate (SODA ASH) NaCO3
or
Sodium Hydroxide (Caustic Soda) NaOH
UST Question:
Whats the purpose of INTERSTITIAL MONITORING?
To detect presence of any fluid between primary and secondary containment.
UST QUESTION:
All USTU facilites in CA were required to Identify in writing a designated operator by when?
January 1, 2005
UST Question:
Under dispenser containment was required at the time of the installations for all systems installed after what date?
December 31, 2003
New UST?
Existing UST under ground storage tank installed prior Jan 1, 1984.
Existing UST?
New underground storage tank which is not an existing underground storage tank.
Good visibility depends on?
Contrast between objects and background. Ratio of 60:80%
Specular Reflection
Reflection of smooth surface which light ray leaves at the same angle it came from. too much results in GLARE.
Shadows
Produce by strong source such as the sun
Diffused light
light reflected off a light colored wall. Produces soft shadows.
Highly diffused light
IE-Overcast or a cloudy day. Produces no shadow.
Direct light
light distrubiting 90-100% of direct sources that is aimed at.
Direct-Indirect lighting
mixed light from different sources all at one time
indirect lighting
90-100%light directed towards ceiling and upper side walls. reflected in all parts of the room
Semi-indirect light
60-90% directed to ceiling and upper walls. while dense diffusing glass allows some of the light to pass through indirectly downward.
Light for studying?
Direct-Indirect light
Light for work?
Combo of both Diffused and Direct
Florescent lighting?
uses UV light and mercury in an arc. UV light causes excitement to the florescent chems to produce light. Good for air quality because negative ions bind with air pollutants causing them to fall out.
Best Chlorine for Pools?
Hyperchlorous Chlorine (HOCl) measured by free residual chlorine
Cl below .4 causes what?
Production of Chloramines.
Chlormaines ?
Cl combined with (Nitrogen or Ammonia) causes odors
Chemical to raise pH?
Sodium Carbonate (Soda Ash) or Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH which is Caustic acid)
Chemical to lower pH?
Hydrochloric Acid (Muratic Acid)
Chemical to neutralize cl?
Sodium Thiosulfate
Chemical to stabilize cl?
Cynuric acid

Naturally Acquired Passive Immunity?
Resistance through prenatal
Artificially- Acquired Passive Immunity
Inoculation of anti bodies from human, animal blood or plasma. Short term immunization
