"Studies were undertaken to assess the potential of coli-phages to be used universally as water quality indicators and more specifically as health hazard indicators for Canadian waters. Sample and data were collected from three distinct and separate water bodies, a northern Canadian River, inshore water samples from Lake Ontario and from marine beaches in Brazil. Data from this two continent, three waterbody study indicate (a) that within location fecal coliform and coliphages are positively correlated (b) coliphage values can be indicated or predjicted by using fecal coliform MPN, fecal streptococci MF and E. coli MF data and (c) it would be feasible to propose a coliphage freshwater quality guideline of 20 coliphage/100 mL for recreational“ waters"--Abstract.
