Application of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) for assessing fecal pollution sources at a recreational beach.
We investigated the effectiveness of Escherichia coli community fingerprinting for identifying fecal pollution sources impacting a recreational beach. E. coli in water collected from the beach, nearby creek and storm sewer outfall were enumerated using membrane filtration, while E. coli communities were characterized following polymerase chain reaction analysis and denaturing gradient gel elect...
متن کاملPresence of pathogens and indicator microbes at a non-point source subtropical recreational marine beach.
Swimming in ocean water, including ocean water at beaches not impacted by known point sources of pollution, is an increasing health concern. This study was an initial evaluation of the presence of indicator microbes and pathogens and the association among the indicator microbes, pathogens, and environmental conditions at a subtropical, recreational marine beach in south Florida impacted by non-...
متن کاملIndicators of microbial beach water quality: preliminary findings from Teluk Kemang beach, Port Dickson (Malaysia).
This study aims to determine the concentrations of total coliforms and Escherichia coli (E. coli) in beach water, Teluk Kemang beach. This study was also aimed to determine relationship between total coliforms, E. coli and physicochemical parameters. As perceived health symptoms among beach visitors are rarely incorporated in beach water studies, this element was also assessed in this study. A ...

Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study, a total of 29 samples of butter were investigated in 2 groups which 24 samples were of trad...
متن کاملModeling Microbial Water Quality at a Beach Impacted by Multiple Non- Point Sources
Monitoring microbial water quality is essential for recreational beaches in order to protect human health. To evaluate the relative importance and impacts of various types of non-point microbial sources at a subtropical beach (Hobie Beach, Miami, USA), we utilized a coastal ocean circulation model (Delft3D) with a microbe transport-fate model. Those non-point sources include beach sediment, dog...
