Estimation of pathogen concentrations in a drinking water source using hydrodynamic modelling and microbial source tracking.
The faecal contamination of drinking water sources can lead to waterborne disease outbreaks. To estimate a potential risk for waterborne infections caused by faecal contamination of drinking water sources, knowledge of the pathogen concentrations in raw water is required. We suggest a novel approach to estimate pathogen concentrations in a drinking water source by using microbial source trackin...
متن کاملInvestigation of Fungi in Drinking Water Resources as a Source of Contamination Tap Water in Sari, Iran
Background and purpose: One of the most prominent concerns for the water consumers is pathogenic microorganism contamination. Wells and underground water resources are the main resources of drinking water in Sari city, Iran. The main objectives of the research project were to explore the distribution and frequency of mycoflora in wells and underground water resources of the city and their conta...

متن کاملNatural Radioactivity of Drinking Water Resources in Arak, Iran
The activity concentrations of 235U, 232Th, 226Ra, 40K and 137Cs in ground and surface of drinking water resources in Iranian city of Arak were determined by gamma ray spectrometry with aHPGe detector setup, coaxial p type and 8192 channels MCA. The water samples differed in radioactivity content depending on their origin and place. In the ...
متن کاملMICROBIAL SOURCE TRACKING - FAQs
Microbial Source Tracking within your watershed can provide important information regarding the Point Source (structures, pipes, sewage outfalls) and Non-Point Source (runoff, animals) contamination present in your service area. Determination of human, ruminant and other fecal inputs into surface source or ground waters can provide a scientific basis for watershed management decisions and can a...
