Chapter 8 * : SANITARY INSPECTION AND MICROBIOLOGICAL WATER QUALITY
Sanitary inspection, water quality determination and data analysis and interpretation are essential elements in characterising the microbiological safety of water in recreational areas. Sanitary inspection is a necessary adjunct to water microbiological analysis. A well-conducted sanitary inspection can identify sources of microbiological hazards, microbiological water quality data confirm the ...
متن کاملDevelopment and Implementation of Rapid Microbiological Methods for Measuring Recreational Water Quality
California’s beach water quality monitoring programs are the most comprehensive in the nation. State Health Services regulations implemented in response to California Assembly Bill 411 require measurement of three indicator bacteria (total coliforms, fecal coliforms and enterococci) on at least a weekly basis at high use beaches. Regulations further require that the public be warned of possible...
متن کاملAre the defined substrate-based methods adequate to determine the microbiological quality of natural recreational waters?
Monitoring the microbiological quality of water used for recreational activities is very important to human public health. Although the sanitary quality of recreational marine waters could be evaluated by standard methods, they are time-consuming and need confirmation. For these reasons, faster and more sensitive methods, such as the defined substrate-based technology, have been developed. In t...
متن کاملIndicators of microbial water quality
Current guidelines in the three water-related areas (drinking water, wastewater and recreational water) assess quality, in microbiological terms, by measuring indicator organisms. This chapter looks at the history and examines some of the methods used to assess the microbiological quality of water, highlighting the current limitations and also possible future developments. Traditionally, indica...
متن کاملEvaluation of the microbiological quality of wastewater effluent-irrigated maize
Background and Aim: Water crisis in many regions of the world especially arid and semi-arid areas such as Iran, is an important obstacle for socioeconomic development and food security. Under such circumstances, wastewater reuse in agriculture can be regarded an important alternative water source. However, treated wastewater may contain some types of pathogenic microorganisms which can threaten...
