    Multiplex PCR amplification of lacZ, uidA and plc genes was developed for the simultaneous detection of total coliform bacteria for Escherichia coli and Clostridium perfringens, in drinking water. Detection by agarose gel electrophoresis yielded a... band of 876 bp for the lacZ gene of all coliform bacteria; a band of 147 bp for the uidA gene and a band of 876 bp for the lacZ gene of all strains of E. coli; a band of 280 bp for the plc gene for all strains of C. perfringens; and a negative result

    This research was designed to study the efficiency of non-carbonated soft drink color removal by using granular activated carbon (GAC) for coliform bacteria detection by SI medium. The conditions established in the study were to use 6 color tones... for blue color-tone. The validity of coliform bacteria detection by SI medium for these removed-color soft drinks when compared with the standard MPN method were sensitivity value, specificity value and efficiency of test of more than 80%. Thus, GAC can

    transformation of bacterial counts was conducted. The results revealed that counts of total bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, and fecal coliforms in aseptically shucked oysters, were significantly lower than those same measurements in freshly-shucked oysters (p.... Fresh water exceeded the standards for total bacteria and coliforms in all samples, both before and after washing. The 40% of unwashed and 50% of washed shucked oysters exceeded the standard for total bacteria. The results indicated that bacterial
