Coliphage presence in various types of potable water in Thailand / by Komol Sivaborvorn and B.J. Dutka.: En13-5/89-170E-PDF
"Three types of drinking water used in Thailand, tap water, rain water and deep well water (200m) were tested for bacteriological and coliphage content. 13.5% of the samples contained only coliphage and 13% contained both coliphage and total coliforms The incidence of coliphage in these potable water supplies reflect the probability of human pathogenic virus also surviving in these waters. The H25 paper-strip test was found to be an equally sensitive indicator of coliform presence compared to MF and MPN total coliform procedures"--Abstract.
