Freshwater mussels as monitors of bacteriological water quality

Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 1988
A species of commercially obtained freshwater mussel (Elliptio complanata) was shown to actively filter, concentrate, and retain fecal coliform (FC) bacteria from a variety of freshwater stream environments. Fecal coliform densities in mussel viscera were maximum within 48 hr of in situ exposure.

Model of fluctuations in bacteriological indices of water quality

Water Resources, 2006
The bacteriological indices of water quality, including coliforms, sulfite-reducing clostridia, total microbial count, coliphages, and fecal streptococci were analyzed. A model describing fluctuations in microorganism population in the aquatic environment is proposed.

Factors Influencing the Bacteriological Water Quality in Mountainous Surface and Groundwaters

Acta hydrochimica et hydrobiologica, 2004
AbstractThe presence of pathogenic bacteria in water, along with the factors that act upon them, constitutes a field that has been little investigated in natural environments. It is clear, however, that these pathogens do have a significant effect on the quality of drinking water.

Refrigerated autosampling for the assessment of bacteriological water quality

Water Research, 1994
Abstract This study compared manual and automatic sampling techniques at two urban creeks of varying faecal impact in Sydney, Australia. Changes in refrigerated (3°C) automatic sampler samples were followed for up to 18 h for total coliforms, faecal coliforms, total heterotrophs, pH, conductivity and turbidity.

APPLYING BACTERIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS TO RECREATIONAL WATER QUALITY

Journal AWWA, 1970
Sanitary significance of fecal coliform determinations in water pollution have lately been questioned. Fecal coli forms have been reassessed as indicators for pollution in recreational waters and are judged still to be reliable.

Bacteriological quality of water and water borne diseases in Bangalore: a longitudinal study.

East African journal of public health, 2011
In developing countries diarrhea diseases take a big toll which can be prevented by adequate supply of safe drinking water. Thus a longitudinal study was taken up to determine the morbidity due to water borne diseases and bacteriological quality of water.

Bacteriological evaluation of water quality of Kastela Bay

Ichthyological bulletin of the J.L.B. Smith Institute of Ichthyology, 1992
In this paper is presented the sanitary quality of the Bay of Kastela, examining in particular the concentrations of indicators of faecal pollution entering the Bay via waste waters. Special attention has been paid to the group of heterotrophic bacteria which play the main role in the decomposition of organic matter.
