| Abstract |
A minor investigative study was undertaken by the Wheeling Field Station Microbiology Unit, to determine what happens to total coliform populations after a twenty-four hour storage period. Ten sampling points were chosen with respect to their coliform densities and their proximity to the laboratory. All stations represented sampling points where domestic pollution may be the major problem. Samples were collected as early as possible and returned to the laboratory immediately. The initial examination always took place within two hours of collection. The remainder of the sample was packed in ice chests to duplicate conditions which exist when a sample is shipped from the field to the laboratory. Twenty-four hours later the second examination was performed. The temperature of the samples varied from 0-3C. |
