Abstract Escherichia coli and coliform are frequently detected in groundwater, their abundant presence indicates that the groundwater has been contaminated. Several variables, including population density well construction, contribute to growth of E. coliforms groundwater. This is caused by domestic waste as a source pollution being close clean water sources (wells). study aims map distribution...

The influence of a mission hospital on the evolution of antibiotic resistance in coliform bacteria from a remote antibiotic-free Xhosa community and environment is described.

background: there are great interests in photocatalytic oxidation of contaminants using titanium dioxide in recent years. the main objective of this research was to study photocatalytic disinfection of coliform bacteria as water microbial pollution index using tio2 and a low pressure uv lamp in a batch reactor. methods: the polluted water was prepared by adding a colony of coliform in raw water...
