Water Quality Assessment: Endotoxin Brings Real-Time Measurements and Non-Faecally Transmitted Bacteria to the Table
2025-04-10
Abstract excerpt
We have used a rapid, portable assay (Bacterisk) to determine bacterial water quality along several inland waters in SW England. Water samples were compared by conventional membrane filter and culture methods for faecal indicator bacteria (FIB; E. coli and enterococci) and endotoxin measurement by Bacterisk. The Bacterisk data, measured in near real-time, correlates well with both E. coli and enterococci, but also...
