The bacteriology of the water supplies of Rangoon.II.Cool dry and hot dry seasons. Union of Burma Journal of Life Sciences. 1970; 3(2): 181-190http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/126702Water samples from 19 piped and natural sources in Rangoon were examined bacteriologically during the cool dry season of 1966-67 and the hot dry season of 1967 for the Presumptive Coliform Count, the Presumptive Enterococcus Count and the presence of Presumptive Clostridium perfringens. Bacteria isolated from Mac Conkey bile salt lactose peptone water (Cruickshank, 1965) and sodium azide medium (Hannay and Norton, 1947) primary cultures were identified. Using as criteria the Presumptive Coliform Count and the isolation of Escherichia coli and/or Klebsiella aerogenes and for Streptococcusfaeca.zis, for the cool dry season, all of the 15 samples tested were found unsatisfactory for drinking purposes. Again, for tile cool dry season, all of the 16 samples tested were found unsatisfactory.BacteriologyWater SupplySeasons
