Biofilm in Drinking Water Distribution System
Journal of Water Engineering and Management, 2023 Biofilms associated with drinking water are ubiquitous, harbouring bacterial pathogens, opportunistic pathogens, parasitic protozoa, viruses, and toxins releasing fungi and algae. Microbial consortia in contact with drinking water have significant impacts on water quality and may threaten human health when contamination events occur.
