A prospective study of swimming-related illness. II. Morbidity and the microbiological quality of water
A prospective cohort epidemiological-microbiological study was carried out at 10 beaches in Ontario, Canada. Lake water and sediment samples collected at the beaches were analyzed for fecal coliforms, fecal streptococci, heterotrophic bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and total staphylococci. Mean f...

| description | A prospective cohort epidemiological-microbiological study was carried out at 10 beaches in Ontario, Canada. Lake water and sediment samples collected at the beaches were analyzed for fecal coliforms, fecal streptococci, heterotrophic bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and total staphylococci. Mean fecal coliform levels in the surface water of the lakes were within accepted guidelines. Bacterial densities were found to be approximately 10 times higher in the sediment than in the corresponding surface water samples. Morbidity among swimmers was shown to be related to staphylococcal counts, to fecal coliform levels, and, somewhat less strongly, to fecal streptococcal counts. Total staphylococci appeared to be more consistent indicators for predicting total morbidity rates among swimmers. |
