Anaerobic incubation of membrane filter cultures for improved detection of fecal coliforms from recreational waters. 1984

J D Doyle, and B Tunnicliff, and S K Brickler, and R E Kramer, and N A Sinclair

Anaerobic incubation of membrane filter cultures significantly enhanced detection of fecal coliforms in surface-water samples from recreational beaches. In contrast to standard aerobic incubation, anaerobic incubation suppressed overgrowth of masking, noncoliform bacteria but did not increase the frequency of fecal coliform recovery.
