Vibrio-indicator relationships and effects of day, depth, and tidal levels on the density of vibrios enumerated by the most probable number technique were investigated. Counts of vibrios taken monthly from Apalachicola Bay, Fla., were either negatively correlated or showed no correlation with counts of indicator bacteria (Escherichia coli, enterococci, fecal coliforms, and total coliforms). Water samples collected on two days from the surface and bottom over a complete tidal cycle on each day were analyzed for differences in vibrio concentrations. Concentrations of vibrios in samples taken on different days, in those taken at different depths, and in those taken at different tidal levels were significantly different, indicating that these factors need to be taken into account in health-related studies.
研究了弧菌与指示菌的关系以及日、深度和潮汐水平对采用最大可能数技术计数的弧菌密度的影响。每月从佛罗里达州阿巴拉契科拉湾采集的弧菌计数与指示菌(大肠杆菌、肠球菌、粪大肠菌群和总大肠菌群)计数呈负相关或无相关性。在两天内,每天在一个完整的潮汐周期内从表层和底层采集水样,分析弧菌浓度的差异。不同日期、不同深度和不同潮汐水平采集的样本中弧菌浓度存在显著差异,表明在与健康相关的研究中需要考虑这些因素。
