Chelsea UviLux UV Fluorometer Sensors
Features
- Real-time data output of UV fluorescence parameters
- Robust ambient light and turbidity rejection
- Easy system integration with RS-232 output and wide voltage input
- Expedited repair and warranty service
- Lifetime technical support
- More
UviLux sensors enable real-time, in situ detection of a wide variety of UV fluorescence parameters including Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH), BTEX, crude oil, CDOM, and Tryptophan-like fluorescence (TLF). The compact and highly sensitive fluorometers have excellent turbidity rejection and high ambient light rejection, making them suitable for use in water and wastewater treatment works, as well as natural waters at the surface and to depths of up to 1000m.
In addition to the high performance of individual sensors, deploying the sensors in pairs provides increased robustness to variable fluorescence backgrounds. UviLux is easy to integrate into many instrumentation platforms and vehicles offering a wide range of data output options and input voltages.

Lake Malawi: A Treasure to Protect
Lake Malawi (also known as Lake Nyasa and Lake Niassa) doubles as a Rift Valley Lake and one of the seven African Great Lakes. Due to its unique biodiversity, it’s a great place to conduct limnological studies. Harvey Bootsma is a professor for the School of Freshwater Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and has had an interest in limnology ever since he was a kid. Bootsma fondly recalls summer vacations to Georgian Bay, Ontario, “I probably spent as much time in the water as I did out of it.” He continues, "I remember telling myself, ‘I’m going to get a job where I can stay here all the time.’” While Harvey didn’t end up working on Georgian Bay, he was offered a job working on Lake Malawi. He continued working there while completing his Ph.D.

Microbes and Human Health: Aquatic Microbial Communities May Hold Clues about How Deadly Pathogens Spread
Aquatic ecosystems are incredibly complex, with many different biotic and abiotic factors constantly interacting. Microbial communities are a key part of aquatic ecosystems, involved in the constant flow of energy and recycling of organic matter, according to Science Direct . The true scope of microbial community impacts on aquatic ecosystems is still not entirely understood. Eric Benbow, a professor of community ecology at Michigan State University, is exploring how microbial communities and pathogens may be negatively impacting human health, and how a changing climate could worsen this problem. How Do Pathogens Arise? Benbow, along with his students and colleagues, are studying a realm of community ecology that is still relatively unknown.

Winter 2023 Environmental Monitor Available Now
In this issue, we showcase researchers from across the globe and the importance of monitoring and protecting biodiversity in a variety of ecosystems. From endangered freshwater mussels across the U.S. to vegetation in the Amazon Rainforest , this latest edition highlights the importance of species of all sizes. Through monitoring various parameters, researchers spent the year gathering data and constructing management plans to protect these valuable species. Our writers also sought out science professionals that are dedicated to protecting nature’s most vulnerable through traditional and more contemporary methods.
