AB  - The rate of destruction of endotoxin in water samples by a combination of UV and ozone has been investigated. After an initial non-linear phase the rate of destruction followed 1st order kinetics with a calculated D value of between six and ten min on endotoxin levels as high as 100 EU/mL. Measuring endotoxin destruction rates has proved an effective way of validating the UV-ozone water treatment process.
