About This Item

 

Full Description

Microbial growth within a distribution system can adversely affect the quality of a drinking water. The authors of this article used bioassays to assess the likelihood of water samples supporting microbial growth. This method is based on the growth of fluorescent pseudomonads as a function of the concentration of easily assimilable organic carbon (AOC) in water. Water samples from various stages of water treatment were analyzed. The concentration of AOC in water increased if the water was ozonated or placed in contact with plasticized polyvinyl- chloride. Includes 38 references, tables, figures.
