Water quality - Detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria - Part 1: Membrane filtration method

Document Number: NL ISO 9308 2 : 2012

This part of ISO 9308 describes a reference method (Standard Test) for the detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria in water for human consumption. The Standard Test is based on membrane filtration, subsequent culture on a differential agar medium and calculation of the number of target organisms in the sample. The Standard Test has a low selectivity, allowing the detection of injured bacteria. Due to the low selectivity, background growth can interfere with the reliable enumeration of coliform bacteria and E. coli, for example in some drinking waters, like shallow well waters, that have not been disinfected and yield a high background growth. This part of ISO 9308 is therefore especially suitable for disinfected water and other drinking waters of low bacterial numbers. This part of ISO 9308 includes a rapid method (Rapid Test) for the detection of E. coli only within 24 h in water for human consumption, which can be useful in special cases when information is needed quickly. The Rapid Test is based on membrane filtration, subsequent culture under selective conditions and calculation of the number of E. coli in the sample. Standard and Rapid Tests described in this part of ISO 9308 are applicable to other kinds of water provided that suspended matter or background flora does not interfere with filtration, culture and counting.

Water quality - Detection and enumeration of coliform organisms, thermotolerant coliform organisms and presumptive Escherichia coli - Part 2: Multiple tube (most probable number) method

Document Number: NL ISO 9308 3 Cor : 2012

This part of IS0 9308 specifies a method for the de- tection and enumeration in water of coliform organisms, thermotolerant coliform organisms and presumptive Escherichia co/i (presumptive E. co/i) by culture in a liquid medium in multiple tubes and calculation of their most probable numbers in the sample. This method can be applied to all types of water, including those containing an appreciable amount of suspended matter. The choice of tests used in the detection and confir- mation of the coliform group of organisms, including E. co/i, can be regarded as part of a continuous se- quence. The extent of confirmation with a particular sample depends partly on the nature of the water and partly on the reasons for the examination. In practice, the detection in water of presumptive E. coli as defined in 3.3 of this part of IS0 9308, usually provides an indication of recent faecal pol- lution.

Water quality - Detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria - Part 3: Miniaturized method (Most Probable Number) for the detection and enumeration of E. coli in surface and waste water

Document Number: NL ISO 9998 : 2012

This part of ISO 9308 specifies a miniaturized method for the detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in surface and waste water by inoculation in a liquid medium. The method is applicable to all types of surface and waste waters, particularly those rich in suspended matter. This method is not suitable for drinking water and any other type of water for which the guideline is less than 15 counts per 100 ml. This method is not appropriate for enumeration and detection of coliform bacteria other than E. coli.

Water quality - Detection and enumeration of bacteriophages - Part 1: Enumeration of F-specific RNA bacteriophages

Document Number: NL ISO 10705 2 : 2012

This part of IS0 10705 specifies a method for the detection and enumeration of F-specific ribonucleic acid (RNA) bacteriophages by incubating the sample with an appropriate host strain. The method can be applied to all kinds of water, sediments and sludges, where necessary after dilution. In the case of low numbers, a preconcentration step may be necessary for which a separate part of IS0 10705 will be devel- oped. The method can also be applied to shellfish extracts. Depending on the relative abundance of F- specific RNA bacteriophages to background organisms, additional confirmatory tests may be necessary and are also specified in this part of IS0 10705. The presence of F-specific RNA bacteriophages in a water sample generally indicates pollution by wastewater contaminated by human or animal faeces. Their survival in the environment, removal by widely used water treatment processes and concentration or retention by shellfish resembles that of foodborne and waterborne human enteric viruses, for example the enteroviruses, hepatitis A virus and rotaviruses.
