Validation and use of the dead‐end ultrafiltration method for the capture and recovery of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli from surface water

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 1152-1162, September/October 2025.
Abstract Root cause analysis following microbial water contamination events typically relies upon the collection of large sample volumes. Dead‐end ultrafiltration (DEUF) is an efficient method for sampling and transporting up to 100 L of water from field environments. A single‐lab validation (SLV) using DEUF to recover Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia
