Description
Summary:This review summarizes the literature pertaining to the occurrence and detection of indicator organisms and pathogens published during 2014. It is organized into the following sections: i) detection and quantification of fecal indicators and waterborne pathogens, ii) microbial source tracking (MST) using genotypic and phenotypic methods, iii) antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB), iv) live vs. dead cell differentiation methods, and v) next generation sequencing (NGS).
