D.c. radiometer

Only components of detector and amplifier noise within the side bands enter the system. Low frequency detector noise is unimportant. Also eliminated are all problems associated with d.c. or very low frequency amplification. Not eliminated are effects caused by the temperature dependence of detector responsivity or of optical transmission functions. The main disadvantage of chopping, besides the complexity of the chopper mechanism and associated circuitry, is the need for a faster detector in comparison with that for a d.c. radiometer of identical base band. In a chopping radiometer the detector must respond up to the frequency limit set by the upper side band.

The UV intensity measured by a radiometer, however, does not precisely represent the UV intensity received by the target pathogens, because several factors such as turbidity can hinder the transparency of the aqueous. Bolton and Linden developed an equation to calculate the UV light intensity when using low-pressure UV lamp (20). It takes account of the following important factors (a) water factor, (b) divergence factor, (c) reflection factor, and (d) Petri factor.

Fig. 2. (A) Left lateral gamma images of dogs with acute experimental MI. Images a, c, e, and g were obtained after iv administration of conventionally modified " In-DTPA-antimyosin Fab (AM-Fab) images b, d, f, and h were obtained after administration of AM-Fab modified with 11 In-loaded chelating polymer (PL-AM Fab). The heavy load of chelating polymer-modified AM Fab with reporter radiometal permits one to obtain a clear infarct image in the left lateral oblique position only in 3 h (bright spot on image h). Whereas the use of traditionally labeled antibody requires <24 h to yield images of a comparable quality. From ref. 21.

The evaluation of photocatalytic reactor performance is closely related to the continuous evaluation and reassessment of lamp operation since lamps experience decay with time of utilization. It is recommended that lamps be calibrated and re-recalibrated frequently to estimate their decay. In addition, it is advised to use some auxiliary equipment in perfonning this task (a) a UVX digital radiometer, (b) a 4D Controls Ltd spectrora-diometer, (c) the Lamp Testing Unit (LTU) developed by Serrano and de Lasa (1997), and (d) a set of tubulai collimators for radiation ti ansmission measurements.
