| description | A study of Salmonella, total coliform, faecal coliform and Escherichia Coli in well water
collected from 34 sampling points from seven areas in the vicinity of Badang, Kota Bharu
was conducted. The area involved were Kampung Kijang, Kampung Che Latif, Kampung
Semut Api, Kampung Badang, Kampung Pulau Pisang, Kampung Pulau Kundur and
Kampung Dal. Well water was collected two times at each sampling point from March 2016
to April 2016. The objective of this study was to investigate the presence of Salmonella,
total coliform, faecal coliform and Escherichia coli. Furthermore it was done to find the
factors contributing their survival in well water. The laboratory testing of bacteria was
conducted using membrane filtration technique and streak plate technique. The result of
this study showed some of those bacteria were significantly correlated to four factors which
were pH, dissolved oxygen, depth of well and distance of well from sanitary tank, at p <
0.05. In addition, the numbers of those bacteria was different between close well, partially
close well and open well. Higher number of bacteria was found in close well. Overall, no
Salmonella was found in the vicinity of Badang. The number of coliform bacteria in all area
in the vicinity of Badang exceed the drinking water quality standard given out by Ministry of
Health of Malaysia (0 CFU/100ml) |
