Cryptosporidiosis associated with swimming pools in England

Dermatoses associated with brominated swimming pools

fault occurred in the heat reclamation system and simple air extraction was used. For intensively used public swimming pools there are no obvious altematives to chlorine based disinfectants. A survey of bather comfort showed that problems with chlorinous smells are virtually non-existent when the organic contaminants are removed by the powerful oxidising action of ozone.3 In this process swimmi...

Tel: +81-43-266-7996, Fax: +81-43-265-5544, E-mail: [email protected] Cryptosporidiosis is a diarrheal disease initiated by ingestion of Cryptosporidium oocysts. The incubation period is 2 -10 days, and the chief symptom is water...

Characterization of microbial populations associated with natural swimming pools.

Natural swimming pools are artificially created bodies of water that are intended for human recreational bathing and have no chemical disinfection treatment. The microbial populations in four private natural swimming pools were analysed to assess the typical microbiological parameters, establish the origin of faecal contamination in the water, and predict the behaviour of larger systems that ar...
