Survival of Enteroviruses and Bacteriophage in Farm Pond Waters

Joyce, Gayle / Weiser, H. H.

The objective of this study was to determine the presence or absence of enteroviruses in selected pond waters. In addition, survival times, under various conditions, of certain representative enteroviruses, bacteriophage, and parent bacteria were measured. The study observations indicate that farm pond waters pose a definite site for storage of enteroviruses. These viruses, if introduced into such waters, could constitute a serious public health problem, especially in light of the increasing frequency of recreational use of farm ponds.
