Faecal coliform, Escherichia coli or what?
The use of indicators for evaluating the microbiological quality of the marine surf-zone water is a worldwide practice. It is important that the indicator used, is the most relevant in relation to bathers’ health. It must be easy to detect and it must be cost effective. This paper reports the comparison between the occurrence of faecal coliforms and Escherichia coli in the marine surf-zone. Bot...
متن کاملSimultaneous determination of coliform and Escherichia coli indices.
Whether all members of the coliform group of bacteria should be accorded equal sanitary significance has been debated for at least a generation. English and German authorities are disposed to assign special significance to the presence of Escherichia coli, whereas it is the American practice, particularly as applied to water analyses, to consider all coliform bacteria of equal sanitary signific...
متن کاملComparison of Conventional Plating and Simplate Methods for Enumeration of Aerobic Microorganisms, Coliform and Escherichia Coli in Farm Environmental Samples
The objective of this study was to compare conventional plating to SimPlate methods for enumeration of aerobic microorganisms, coliforms and Escherichia coli in samples from farm animals and their environment. Samples evaluated included rectal swabs, fecal material, bedding, litter and feed and soil from beef and dairy cattle, swine and poultry farms. Standard method agar pour plating and conve...
متن کاملImproved detection of Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria by multiplex PCR
BACKGROUND The presence of coliform bacteria is routinely assessed to establish the microbiological safety of water supplies and raw or processed foods. Coliforms are a group of lactose-fermenting Enterobacteriaceae, which most likely acquired the lacZ gene by horizontal transfer and therefore constitute a polyphyletic group. Among this group of bacteria is Escherichia coli, the pathogen that i...
متن کاملComparison of Escherichia coli, Total Coliform, and Fecal Coliform Populations as Indicators of Wastewater Treatment Efficiency
Escherichia coli, total coliform, and fecal coliform population data were collected from two wastewater treatment facilities, a subsurface flow artificial wetlands, and a receiving stream. Results are presented from individual wastewater treatment process streams, final effluent, and river sites upstream and downstream of the treatment [ acilities. The QuantiTray technique with 4-mcthylumbellif...
