Assessing Water Quality: Staphylococci as Microbial Indicators in Swimming Pools.
Rivera, Jo. Bechaida T.; Adera, Tilahun
Journal of Environmental Health, v53 n6 p29-32 May-Jun 1991
This study suggests that staphylococci may be the preferred microbial indicators of swimming pool water quality because these organisms met all criteria for best microbial indicators in terms of amount of recovery, resistance to disinfectants, and risk to bathers using water samples from nine swimming pools in Linn and Benton Counties, Oregon.
