Abstract
The results of two research programs to determine the optimum detector design for measuring fecal coliforms in saline waters for operational systems are presented. One program was concerned with the effects of temperature and salinity on endpoint response time, and the other, the interaction between electrode configurations and the test organisms. Test results show that the endpoint response time is related to salinity and seawater temperature; however, these results can be minimized by the correct choice of growth media. Electrode configurations were developed from stainless steel, Parlodion-coated stainless steel, and platinum that circumvented problems associated with the commercial redox electrodes.
