Evaluation of a BWTK for detection of total coliforms,
E. coli and emerging pathogens from drinking water: comparison with standard MPN methodA defined substrate method media in bacteriological water testing kit (BWTK) has been developed to recover and detect the presence/absence of total coliforms and emerging pathogens from drinking water without the need for the confirmatory or complete tests. This method is based on technology that uses a hydrolysable substrate as a specific indicator- nutrient for the target microbes. To perform ...
