Free-living amoebae (FLA) are widely distributed in aquatic environments with increasing importance in hygienic, medical and ecological relationship to man. Only few data are available about abundances of these protozoa in the treatment of drinking water and standards in the management of water quality are not suitable for detection of FLA. Prevalence of FLA were investigated within six selected German drinking water treatment plants in the course of the purification-process of surface water and in a subsequent drinking water supply. The data give a short survey about the prevalence and reduction of FLA in processing and supply of drinking water.
自由生活阿米巴（FLA）广泛分布于水生环境中，在与人类的卫生、医学和生态关系方面的重要性日益增加。关于这些原生动物在饮用水处理中的丰度，仅有少量数据，而且水质管理标准并不适用于检测FLA。在德国六个选定的饮用水处理厂中，对地表水净化过程及后续饮用水供应过程中的FLA流行情况进行了调查。这些数据简要概述了饮用水处理和供应过程中FLA的流行情况及减少情况。
