Water quality - Enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria - Part 1: Membrane filtration method for waters with low bacterial background flora (ISO 9308-1:2014)
This part of ISO 9308 specifies a method for the enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli) and coliform
bacteria. The method is based on membrane filtration, subsequent culture on a chromogenic coliform
agar medium, and calculation of the number of target organisms in the sample. Due to the low selectivity
of the differential agar medium, background growth can interfere with the reliable enumeration of
E. coli and coliform bacteria, for example, in surface waters or shallow well waters. This method is not
suitable for these types of water.
This part of ISO 9308 is especially suitable for waters with low bacterial numbers that will cause less
than 100 total colonies on chromogenic coliform agar (CCA). These may be drinking water, disinfected
pool water, or finished water from drinking water treatment plants.
Some strains of E. coli which are β-D-glucuronidase negative, such as Escherichia coli O157, will not be
detected as E. coli. As they are β-D-galactosidase positive, they will appear as coliform bacteria on this
chromogenic agar.
Wasserbeschaffenheit - Zählung von Escherichia coli und coliformen - Teil 1: Membranfiltrationsverfahren für Wässer mit niedriger Begleitflora (ISO 9308-1:2014)
Dieser Teil von ISO 9308 beschreibt ein Verfahren für die Zählung von E. coli und coliformen Bakterien. Das
Verfahren beruht auf einer Membranfiltration, einer anschließenden Kultivierung auf einem chromogenen
Nähragar und der Berechnung der Anzahl der Zielorganismen in der Probe. Wegen der geringen Selektivität
des Differenzierungsagars kann die Begleitflora eine verlässliche Zählung der coliformen Bakterien und von
E. coli stören, z. B. in Oberflächenwässern oder oberflächennahen Brunnen. Dieses Verfahren ist für solche
Wasserarten nicht geeignet.
Dieser Teil von ISO 9308 eignet sich besonders für die Untersuchung von Wässern mit niedrigen
Bakterienzahlen, bei denen sich insgesamt weniger als 80 Kolonien auf dem chromogenen coliformen Agar
wachsen. Dies können Trinkwässer, desinfizierte Schwimmbeckenwässer oder fertig aufbereitete Wässer aus
Wasseraufbereitungsanlagen sein.
Qualité de l'eau - Dénombrement des Escherichia coli et des bactéries coliformes - Partie 1: Méthode par filtration sur membrane dans des eaux contenant peu de flore bactérienne de fond (ISO 9308-1:2014)
L'ISO 9308 :2014 spécifie une méthode de dénombrement des Escherichia coli (E. coli) et des bactéries coliformes. La méthode consiste en une filtration sur membrane, suivie d'une mise en culture dans une gélose chromogène et d'un calcul du nombre des organismes cibles présents dans l'échantillon. La gélose de différenciation étant peu sélective, la flore bactérienne générale peut perturber la fiabilité du dénombrement des E. coli et des bactéries coliformes, par exemple, dans certaines eaux de surface ou certaines eaux de puits peu profonds. Cette méthode ne convient pas à ces types d'eau.
L'ISO 9308 :2014 est particulièrement adaptée aux eaux à faible teneur en bactéries qui produiront moins de 100 colonies totales sur de la gélose chromogène pour le dénombrement des bactéries coliformes. Ces eaux peuvent être l'eau potable, l'eau de piscine désinfectée ou l'eau propre sortant de stations de production d'eau potable.
Certaines souches d'E. coli négatives à la β-D-glucuronidase, telles qu'Escherichia coli O157, ne sont pas détectées en tant qu'E. coli. Comme elles sont positives à la β-D-galactosidase, elles sont considérées comme des bactéries coliformes sur la gélose chromogène pour bactéries coliformes (CCA).
Kakovost vode - Ugotavljanje števila Escherichia coli in koliformnih bakterij - 1. del: Metoda membranske filtracije za vode z majhnim številom spremljajočih bakterij (ISO 9308-1:2014)
Ta del ISO 9308 določa metodo za ugotavljanje števila Escherichia coli (E. coli) in koliformnih bakterij. Metoda temelji na membranski filtraciji, posledični kulturi na kromogenem koliformnem agarskem gojišču in izračunu števila ciljnih organizmov v vzorcu. Zaradi nizke selektivnosti diferencialnega agarskega gojišča je mogoče, da rast v ozadju vpliva na zanesljivo ugotavljanje števila E. coli in koliformnih bakterij, na primer v površinskih vodah ali plitvih vodah v vodnjakih. Ta metoda ni primerna za te vrste vod.
Ta del standarda ISO 9308 je še posebej primeren za vode z nizkim številom bakterij, ki bi povzročile manj kot 100 kolonij skupaj na kromogenem koliformnem agarju (CAA). Te so morda pitna voda, dezinficirana voda v bazenu ali končna voda v čistilnih napravah za pitno vodo.
Nekateri sevi E. coli, ki so negativni na β-D-glukuronidazo, kot so Escherichia coli O157, ne bodo
zaznani kot E. coli. Ker so pozitivni na β-D-glukuronidazo, se bodo na tem kromogenem agarju pojavili kor koliformne bakterije.

Introduction
The presence and extent of faecal pollution is an important factor in assessing the quality of water and
the risk to human health from infection. Examination of water samples for the presence of Escherichia
coli (E. coli), which normally inhabits the bowel of man and other warm-blooded animals, provides an
indication of such pollution. Examination for coliform bacteria can be more difficult to interpret because
some coliform bacteria live in soil and surface fresh water and are not always intestinal. Therefore,
the presence of coliform bacteria, although not a proof of faecal contamination, may indicate failure in
treatment, storage, or distribution.

1 Scope
This part of ISO 9308 specifies a method for the enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli) and coliform
bacteria. The method is based on membrane filtration, subsequent culture on a chromogenic coliform
agar medium, and calculation of the number of target organisms in the sample. Due to the low selectivity
of the differential agar medium, background growth can interfere with the reliable enumeration of
E. coli and coliform bacteria, for example, in surface waters or shallow well waters. This method is not
suitable for these types of water.
This part of ISO 9308 is especially suitable for waters with low bacterial numbers that will cause less
than 100 total colonies on chromogenic coliform agar (CCA). These may be drinking water, disinfected
pool water, or finished water from drinking water treatment plants.
Some strains of E. coli which are β-D-glucuronidase negative, such as Escherichia coli O157, will not be
detected as E. coli. As they are β-D-galactosidase positive, they will appear as coliform bacteria on this
chromogenic agar.
