Microbiological and toxicological studies of streams / by B.J. Dutka and S.S. Rao.: En13-5/87-44E-PDF

"A summary of effects which occur when a pollutant enters a stream is presented. In order to try to understand the events which occur after a pollutant enters a stream or river a series of studies listed below were undertaken, and are described. Studies on the transport and survival of bacteria in fresh water systems; studies on the evaluation of the role sediments play in the survival and multiplication of bacteria; and the development of a battery of tests which can be used to evaluate stream or river microbiological, biochemical and toxicant loadings so that areas of concern within a fluvial system can be prioritized"--Abstract.
