Total Coliform Rule Brain Teaser

Journal AWWA, 2009
This brain teaser deals with a hypothetical situation where a small public water system (one that is normally required to only assay one routine total coliform sample during a month) will have to assay five samples in one month's time. The five samples can be either one routine and four repeat samples or five routine samples and no repeats.

Media for ‘total’ Enterobacteriaceae, coliforms and Escherichia coli

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 1995
Selective and enrichment media for the isolation and enumeration of 'total' Enterobacteriaceae, coliforms, faecal coliforms and E. coli from foods are described. The effects of time and temperature of incubation are discussed. Reports of some comparative studies of these media and factors to be considered in the selection of media for this group of ...

Total Coliform Survival Characteristics in Frozen Soils

Journal of Environmental Engineering, 2007
Survival characteristics of total coliform bacteria in soil samples, with different moisture contents (24–49%) and at different temperatures (from −28 to 20°C ), were studied. The study showed that a significant fraction of coliform bacteria survive for more than six months in soil at subfreezing temperatures.

Reconsidering the Total Coliform Rule

Journal AWWA, 2000
Amendments to the 1996 Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) require the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) to review and revise as needed existing National Primary Drinking Water Regulations at least every six years. This article discusses the Total Coliform Rule, which is among the first regulations to be reviewed for possible revision.

Total Coliform Bacteria

1977
Although the total coliform bacterial count has its shortcomings, it is our best indicator of the health hazards associated with drinking water that we have today. Some of these defects can be corrected by additional bacterial tests to determine interference or identify nonconliform lactose fermenting organisms.

Prepare for the Revised Total Coliform Rule

Opflow, 2014
Public health is protected when system operators can respond quickly to correct situations in which coliform bacteria occur in drinking water. A key to success is being aware of where and how such events can occur.
