Environmental studies of enteric bacteria longevity in membrane filter chambers
Two studies were carried out over several seasons to ascertain the survival of pathogenic, indicator, and tracer bacteria in membrane filter chambers. The survival times for these bacteria were lengthy (≥77 days) under either summer or winter conditions. Thus, the use of seasonal effluent disinfection might eventually result in bacterial contamination of downstream sediments and possibly of waters overlying these sediments. As a result of certain disturbances, these bacteria could be recycled throughout the water column and eventually into man or animals directly or indirectly through potable water supplies.
