Occurrence of Coliforms, Fecal Coliforms, and Streptococci on Vegetation and Insects [PDF]
Applied Microbiology, 1964 This study considers the sanitary significance of coliforms, fecal coliforms, and streptococci isolated from 152 species of plants and 40 samples of insects. These specimens were collected from various ecological environments and grouped into several categories.

Modeling Fecal Coliform in Mill Creek [PDF]
Journal of Water Management Modeling, 1997 In 1995, the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District (NEORSD) initiated the Mill Creek Interceptor (MCI) Project, a multi-year undertaking aimed at developing a…

Optimum Membrane Structures for Growth of Coliform and Fecal Coliform Organisms [PDF]
Applied Microbiology, 1975 The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum membrane filter structure and characteristics for recovery of coliform organisms. Additionally, other factors such as sterilization method and membrane composition were examined. Fecal coliform growth tests with varied samples indicated that the most critical factor in recovery was surface pore ...

Sanitary Significance of Coliform and Fecal Coliform Organisms in Surface Water [PDF]
Public Health Reports (1896-1970), 1964 THE SCIENCE of sanitary wat,er bacteriology began in 1880 when von Fritsch described Klebsie7la pneu-monia and K. rhinoscleromatis as organisms characteristic of huiman fecal contamination. A short time later Escherich identified Bacillus coli as an indicator of fecal pollution.

Validity of fecal coliforms, total coliforms, and fecal streptococci as indicators of viruses in chlorinated primary sewage effluents [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1978 Quantities of combined chlorine that usually destroyed more than 99.999% of the indigenous fecal coliforms, total coliforms, and fecal streptococci in primary sewage effluents destroyed only 85 to 99% of the indigenous viruses present. Viruses were recovered from five of eight chlorinated primary effluents from which fecal coliforms were not recovered ...

Comparison of Fecal Coliform Agar and Violet Red Bile Lactose Agar for Fecal Coliform Enumeration in Foods [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2002 ABSTRACT A 24-h direct plating method for fecal coliform enumeration with a resuscitation step (preincubation for 2 h at 37 ± 1°C and transfer to 44 ± 1°C for 22 h) using fecal coliform agar (FCA) was compared with the 24-h standardized violet red bile lactose agar (VRBL) method.

Microtechnique for isolating fecal coliforms from soil [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1983 A most-probable-number microtitration technique for isolating fecal coliforms from soil was developed. A correlation coefficient of 0.86, with a 95% confidence interval of 0.76 less than zeta less than 0.92, was obtained when this technique was compared with the standard elevated-temperature fecal coliform most-probable-number procedure.

Survival of Fecal Coliforms in Dry-Composting Toilets [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2001 ABSTRACT The dry-composting toilet, which uses neither water nor sewage infrastructure, is a practical solution in areas with inadequate sewage disposal and where water is limited. These systems are becoming increasingly popular and are promoted to sanitize human excreta and to recycle them into fertilizer for nonedible plants ...

Significance of Fecal Coliform-Positive Klebsiella [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1977 A total of 191 Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates of human clinical, bovine mastitis, and a wide variety of environmental sources were tested for fecal coliform (FC) response with the membrane filtration and most probable number techniques. Twenty-seven Escherichia coli cultures of human clinical

Rapid seven-hour fecal coliform test [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1979 A rapid 7-h fecal coliform (FC) test for the detection of FC in water has been developed. This membrane filter test utilizes a lightly buffered lactose-based medium (m-7-h FC medium) combined with a sensitive pH indicator system. FC colonies appeared yellow against a light purple background after incubation at 41.5 degrees C for 7 to 7.25 h. Comparison
