Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ehara pea i te mea ko nga taputapu pūtaiao tino whakamiharo, engari ka taea e nga tampons te awhina i nga tohunga ki te horoi i nga awa poke. E whakapono ana ngā kaipūkaha ka taea te whakamahi i te kaha o te ngongo o ngā tīhi hei kimi i ngā putorino e tuku ana i te wai ururua ki roto i ngā awa, kaua ki ngā tipu horoi. I kitea e rātau ko ngā hua miro e ngongo ana i ngā matū e whakamahia nuitia ana ki runga i te pepa wharepaku, ngā matū horoi horoi me ngā hopi, e wherikotanga ana i raro i te marama UV, arā, ka taea e rātau te whakamarama i ngā ara hē i kitea i mua. E whakapono ana ngā kaipūkaha ka taea te whakamahi i te kaha o te ngongo o ngā tīhi hei kimi i ngā putorino e tuku ana i te wai ururua ki roto i ngā awa, kaua ki ngā tipu horoi. I konei, ka tukuna e te putorino whakaheke te waikeri raw ki roto i te awa. E tata ana ki te rima ōrau o ngā kāinga i te UK he hē te hononga o ngā paipa, nā reira ka rere te wai ururua. I whakamāramahia e Pōrero David Lerner, nāna i ārahi te rangahau i te Whare Wānanga o Sheffield's Faculty of Engineering: <unk>Kei te nui ake i te kotahi miriona ngā kāinga kei te hē te hono o ā rātau wai ururua ki te whatunga wai mata, arā, kei te whakahekehia ā rātau wai ururua ki tētahi awa, kaua ki tētahi wheketere horoi. <unk>Kāore i te pai, he tino uaua ki te kite i te wāhi e puta ana tēnei, i te mea he tūtohu te rerenga, kāore e taea te kite i ngā wā katoa ki te kanohi tahanga, ā, he matatini, he utu hoki ngā whakamātautau o nāianei<unk> Engari ināianei kua whakaaturia e tana rōpū e taea ana e ngā tāpoi te wherikotanga i roto i te mārama ultra-violet (UV), nā te mea e ngongo ana i ngā matū e kitea ana i roto i ngā hua e mau ana i ngā <unk>whakakōrero matapihi<unk> e whakamahia ana hei wherikotanga me te wherikōrero i ngā tae. E whakaaro ana nga tohunga ko nga tampons (whakaahua i te taha maui) he otinga iti hei kimi i nga poke i roto i nga awa. I te taha matau, e whakamātautau ana a Pōrero Lerner i te poke o te wai ururua i roto i tētahi awa i Sheffield, UK, mā te whakamahi i tētahi mita kawe me te pāmahana - he tikanga nui ake te utu, engari he iti ake te whai hua i te whakamahi i ngā tīhi me te rama UV. Ka ngongo ngā tampons ki ngā matū e whakamahia nuitia ana ki te pepa wharepaku, ki ngā matū horoi horoi (i te pikitia me te pikitia o te taonga) me ngā hopi, e whiti ana i raro i te rama UV, ko te tikanga ka taea e rātau te whakamarama i ngā mea i whakamahia i mua...
I kitea e ngā kaipūkaha o te Whare Wānanga o Sheffield. Ka wherikotanga ngā tampons i raro i te mārama UV ina kua horomia e rātau te horoi horoi. Mā tēnei e āhei ai ngā tohunga ki te mahi i te wāhi e puta mai ana te poke. Ka taea e te mahi auaha te aukati i te rerenga o te waipuke ki roto i nga awa.
