Microbiological contamination is a specific type of contamination, capable of self-reproduction and expansion, which under favorable conditions can cause biological damage to fuel systems and fuels for military aviation (as well as civil aviation, marine vessels, and fuel and refueling complex). The interrelation of the occurrence of microbiological contamination and the consequences it causes for fuel and means of operation, transportation, and storage testifies to the complex influence of microbiological contamination and justifies the importance of ensuring the microbiological stability of fuels at each stage of their life cycle. The proposed method using ninhydrin makes it possible to promptly detect the presence of microbiological contamination in fuels and prevent the occurrence of biological damage to fuel systems and tanks and ensures the airworthiness of aircraft.
