| Abstract |
A study was conducted to answer basic questions about the fate and handling of stressed indicator bacteria in aquatic environments. The importance of stressed indicator bacteria in assessing water quality has been gaining attention as microbiologists have discovered the inaccuracy of present tools for recovering indicator bacteria in water. The study examines the effects of laboratory manipulations on recovery of injured indicator bacteria. These manipulations include exposure to diluents, choice of enumeration medium, and membrane filter surface pore morphology. |
