Evaluation of microbial source tracking methods using mixed fecal sources in aqueous test samples

1 Dec 2003

Abstract excerpt

Microbiological source tracking (MST) methods are increasingly being used to identify fecal contamination sources in surface waters, but these methods have been subjected to limited comparative testing. In this study, 22 researchers employing 12 different methods were provided sets of identically prepared blind water samples. Each sample contained one to three of five possible fecal sources (human, dog, cattle,...
