| a novel genetic marker for the rapid detection of bacteroides fragilis in recreational water as a human-specific faecal indicator. | bacteroides spp. has gained substantial interest among the suggested potential candidates for alternative faecal indicators for untreated recreational waters by the us epa. interest in bacteroides as a faecal indicator is based upon the relative abundance of selected members of the bacteroides genus in the human colon and human faeces. in this study, we developed a real-time pcr detection system based on gyrase b subunit genes (gyrb) specific to bacteroides fragilis. the gryb-based method was co ... | 2011 | 21942191 |
| rapidly measured indicators of recreational water quality are predictive of swimming-associated gastrointestinal illness. | standard methods to measure recreational water quality require at least 24 hr to obtain results, making it impossible to assess the quality of water within a single day. methods to measure recreational water quality in <or=2 hr have been developed. application of rapid methods could give considerably more accurate and timely assessments of recreational water quality. we conducted a prospective study of beachgoers at two great lakes beaches to examine the association between recreational water qu ... | 2006 | 16393653 |

| persistence of pcr-detectable bacteroides distasonis from human feces in river water. | to evaluate the persistence of pcr-detectable bacteroides distasonis in surface water, whole human feces were dispersed into water from the ohio river and incubated in flasks in the laboratory or in diffusion chambers in situ. duplicate samples were taken daily, and material that pelleted at 16,000 x g was assayed by pcr. persistence of pcr-detectable dna from this anaerobe depended upon temperature and predation, two of the factors shown by others to influence the survival of aerobic bacteria d ... | 1998 | 9758854 |
