Rapid Detection And Enumeration Of Some Microbial Indicators And Pathogens In Water Using Chromogenic Media

This study aimed to rapid detection and enumeration of some microbial indicators and pathogens (Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium perfringens, Listeria monocytogenes, Vibrio cholerae, Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Candida albicans) in foDifferent types of water were examined for detection and enumeration of these microorganisms and sensitivity, specificity and efficiency of the chromogenic media were calculated by identification of typical colonies with polymerase chain reaction techniqu
