above. For UCFL-94, the computed
Α
values were invariably low, especially compared to the
other strains. Overall, in AGW, for all
E. coli
strains we used, the computed
Α
values for the
more distant column segments ranged between 0.006 - 0.283, and the order of magnitude of
these low values (10

) was similar to those observed in DI.
total bacteria mass in the influent suspension were computed, and the resulting distributions were
distributions plotted more or less on a straight line for both the DI and AGW sets of experiments.
