Abstract
Abstract Water-miscible metalworking fluids are an essential component of many manufacturing processes. During their lifetime they are subject to permanent changes in their physical and chemical characteristics. Due to their high content of water and their chemical composition in use, metalworking fluids (MWF) are prone to microbial life, i.e. the proliferation of bacteria and fungi. The microbial activity leads to significant changes in the chemical composition of the MWF, which can result in the loss of their technical properties. This paper briefly discusses the influences of microbial contamination on the technical quality of MWF and presents common monitoring systems for the detection of microorganisms. Finally, measures are described that can be taken to protect MWF from damage caused by high microbial loads in daily practice. In a short outlook, alternative research approaches are mentioned that aim at sustainable use of MWF.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
