Influent and effluent samples from urban wastewater plants were examined for presumptive Aeromonas. Removal efficiency was comparatively low for both presumptive Aeromonas (96.5%) and faecal coliforms (95.8%). Starch ampicillin agar (SA) medium was superior to mA medium for selectivity, with 32.3% of typical colonies confirmed as Aeromonas spp., and for the recovery of Aer. veronii biotype veronii.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
