Interactions between heterotrophic plate count bacteria and coliform organisms.

摘要: Studies were initiated to investigate the interactions between heterotrophic plate count bacteria and coliform organisms. We used spiked samples show that could reduce densities by more than 3 logs within 8 days. Some able cause injury population. A significant correlation (r = 0.66; P less 0.05) was observed initial level of rate decline. Competition for limiting organic carbon hypothesized be responsible effects.
