摘要：

Membrane filtration techniques were used to enumerate B. fragilis group (BFG) organisms and Escherichia coli in a variety of natural waters, the influents and effluents from 3 types of sewage treatment plants and feces of various animals. BFG organisms apparently die off more rapidly than E. coli in water and animal feces are not a significant source of BFG. The ratio of BFG to E. coli in water may be used to indicate the proximity of a source of human fecal contamination.
