Microbiological Water Evaluation from Biofilm Adhered to Dental Unit Waterlines

“…In this perspective, considering the way bacteria is released in the environment, this study proposed a different methodology for collecting when compared to researches related to waterlines contamination, since the bacteriological analysis was not performed from the collection of water from the equipment, but from the release of bacteria previously adhered to the pipe (Tuttlebee et al, 2002;Ávila-De-Navia et al, 2014;Micha kiewicz et al, 2015). Thus, the results showed a quantitative related to the internal area of the tube, where the biofilm is formed, not having a comparison with the volume of water collected.…”
