[pestlist] Anoxia
Everybody should read Selwitz and Maekawa, Getty 1998, and the more recent, Maekawa and Elert Getty 2003, as the definitive works on Anoxia. Let us keep the science clear of rhetoric and anecdote! I have a copy of the Save Art Veloxy project. it should be archived in the EEC somewhere. Veloxy works when you use it properly but it has practical limitations on treating large objects because of the flow rates at low O2 levels.

Test were done on actual Art objects. Also about 25% of time was added as protection. Another protection to bring the ppm range lower than needed. In some cases you can see the insect after treatment in other cases like European powder post beetle you may not. Bill In a message dated 10/5/2009 10:37:18 P.M.

Kind regards, 2009/10/2 Crumpton, Trey trey_crump...@baylor.edu I am looking into writing a grant for a walk-in freezer and/or a CO2 chamber to treat a large number of history and natural history objects (I am considering a permanent apparatus that would be kept around for future use by the museum, though a portable unit is always an option). I was wondering if anyone has gone through this process recently, or would have specs and pricing on such items. I'd like to have some insight into issues or problems involved (i.e. finding a freezer that can get down to -25 and stay there).

This is a message from the Pest Management Database List. To post to this list send it as an email to pestlist@museumpests.net To unsubscribe please look at the footer of this email. --- Here is a link to one article about determining effectiveness of anoxia treatments for museum objects based on their ability to kill insects in the core of various materials. http://arxiv.org/ftp/physics/papers/0611/0611199.pdf As you all know, there is much more info available about results of testing with different treatments. Because we can not take apart or saw through our museum objects, we need to rely on independent testing done by legitimate researchers in the field. Based on their findings we can hopefully trust that insects that can't be seen will be successfully killed in all their stages if the same procedures they used are carefully followed. I deal with books and paper so the insects and their larvae we are concerned about are quite visible under 10X magnification and do not hide inside of a three dimensional object that can not be readily opened and thoroughly inspected.
