Gene and Antigen Markers of Shiga‐toxin Producing <i>E. coli</i> from Michigan and Indiana River Water: Occurrence and Relation to Recreational Water Quality Criteria
30 Jul 2009
Abstract excerpt
The relation of bacterial pathogen occurrence to fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) concentrations used for recreational water quality criteria (RWQC) is poorly understood. This study determined the occurrence of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) markers and their relation to FIB concentrations in Michigan and Indiana river water. Using 67 fecal coliform (FC) bacteria cultures from 41 river sites in...
