Coliform Bacteria in Sediments Around Three Marine Sewage Outfalls
The distribution of coliforms in the sediments around three marine sewage outfalls was investigated. It was found that coliform fields extended for considerable distances around the two outfalls discharging unchlorinatcd primary treatment effluent and that a less extensive field existed around the outfall discharging more highly treated sewage. In general, the coliforms in the sediments were fo...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance among coliform and fecal coliform bacteria isolated from sewage, seawater, and marine shellfish.
Seawater and shellfish samples collected in the vicinity of a marine sewage outfall were examined for the incidence of antibiotic resistance among coliform and fecal coliform bacteria over a 2-year period. Seventy percent or more of these two groups of bacteria from both sources were resistant to one or more antibiotics. Forty-five percent of the isolates resistant to streptomycin or tetracycli...
متن کاملDrug resistance of coliform bacteria in hospital and city sewage.
The number and properties of drug-resistant coliform bacteria in hospital and city sewage were compared. There was little difference in the counts of organisms with nontransferable resistance to one or more of 13 commonly used drugs. An average of 26% of coliforms in hospital waste water had transferable resistance to at least one of the drugs ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, sulfonam...

متن کاملDistribution of sewage input in marine sediments around a maritime Antarctic research station indicated by molecular geochemical indicators.
Sediments from Admiralty Bay, Antarctica were collected during the austral summers of 2002/2003 and 2003/2004 in order to assess the distribution and concentration of sewage indicators originating from Comandante Ferraz Brazilian Antarctic Station. Fecal sterols (coprostanol+epicoprostanol) and linear alkylbenzenes (LABs) ranged from <0.01 to 0.95 microg g(-1) and <1.0 to 23 ng g(-1) dry weight...
