To estimate the danger of infection by a mud bath, especially in group baths, 51 mud samples were analysed before and 80 after application for faecal and total coliforms (FC, GC), Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. The latter two germs were not identified in any of the samples. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was found in about 11% of the samples of both groups. FC and GC were also found before as well as after the bath. Besides E. coli, 9 other strains could be identified. It can be concluded from the data on FC and GC before and after bath, firstly, that a slight faecal contamination is possible, secondly, that the mud can be considerably contaminated with faecal germs even before application. The risk of faecal germs in mud baths causing an epidemic can be neglected, because the bath mud is not swallowed. Therefore, the use of a large-scale mud bath for several patients can be recommended.
为评估泥浴尤其是多人共浴时的感染风险，对51份泥样在使用前、80份泥样在使用后进行了分析，检测其中的粪大肠菌群、总大肠菌群（FC、GC）、铜绿假单胞菌、金黄色葡萄球菌和白色念珠菌。后两种细菌在所有样本中均未检出。两组样本中约11%检测出铜绿假单胞菌。浴前浴后均检测出FC和GC。除大肠杆菌外，还鉴定出9种其他菌株。从浴前浴后FC和GC的数据可以得出，首先，存在轻微粪便污染的可能性；其次，即使在使用前，泥样也可能被粪便细菌大量污染。泥浴中粪便细菌引发疫情的风险可忽略不计，因为浴泥不会被吞咽。因此，推荐为多名患者进行大规模泥浴。
